Your performance feels like magic
Making DIY explosives look like
Snowfall in the summer
I’m enraptured and I’m envious

I shouldn’t make excuses
“Different bodies, different bruises”
You spent a lifetime catching air
I spent a lifetime eating pavement

I’m in pieces
‘Cause you just make it look so easy
Oh baby, I’m falling behind

I had all these expectations
Some were hopeful, some malicious
Some were never said aloud
Yet every one of them was broken

So I’m done with expectations
And I’m done with empty promises
I want to look away
But I’m enraptured, I’m enraptured

I’m in pieces
‘Cause you just make it look so easy
Oh baby, I’m falling behind

I started writing this after episode 7 dropped, but I couldn't think of anything past the chorus until this week jdfskljf
