Green Eyes

I built another closet
The skeletons were walking out
Telling me over and over
The story of every wrong
I have ever done
I have a lot of skeletons
And I built a house of closets
I'll open every single door
And let them make you deaf
I'm all out of ways to say I'm sorry
Just getting started on ways to say i love you
Maybe I should have started like that
But I have never owned the ocean
Just a small boat it hurls into storms
I am the god of regret
Your eyes are green
The color of life
Take me off life support
Or cut out the cancer
Leave me with scars
Leave me weak
Just hold my hand
And walk me through the steps of rehab
We both are covered from head to toe
In scars and burnt skin
You will always be the sunrise to me
Nature fails its attempts to copy you
At least God got one of us right
I want to be with you tonight
Quiet and calm
For once let the ship stay afloat
In the ocean you hold in your hands
