Shooting Star from Self Healing by MT Sullivan

I'm a captain of a sinking ship every time I part my lips
and you are the ocean
I'm a wedding crasher at a funeral just the weight of wanting you might send my soul sinking six feet under the ground
my hopeful heart is a black hole sucking in and crushing my soul
my whispered words of wishing won't make a sound
cuz

You are a shooting star
cut my night, but don't leave a scar
You mean
anything and nothing to me

all the way from over here you vibrate
your reluctant rapture does resonate
with the sound of silence in my soul
and there's a vacuum in your eyes
where my desire goes to die
just the simple sight of you could swallow me whole
cuz

You are a shooting star
cut my night, but don't leave a scar
You mean
anything and nothing to me

You are there when I don't see you
but I just can't believe you
would ever
just stay
cuz

You are a shooting star
cut my night, but don't leave a scar
You mean
anything and nothing to me
