Mispercieve
I used to know the lyrics to your grin
And when it was true, I would sing along
But now your frown will only preach its sins
And I fear I’ve lost the words to your song
When you laugh, I almost forget the scars
Even though I see them before my eyes
In your eyes, I once could count all the stars
Now, your deep black holes come as no surprise
I wonder what it was like way back then
If it was better or I was just blind
But I’d give all to hear that song again
If you’ll just sing, I’d gladly keep the time
You are my hero, though it seems naïve
The ones who leave you all just misperceive.
