Pieces upon pieces of scarlet shards
Litter the glass floor
Of my shattered ego and my invisible heart
I would love to tell you I am perfect
I would love to wake up every day
And smile at the world
Just because I am awake and alive
I would love to paint the sky with stars
And set the planets in the galaxy
And bring down the sun for you to hang in our living room
I would love to be many things that I am not

But I know the clock is running, running
I'm running out of time to say the things I'll never say
And I know I'll never be the same
Because there's only ever been your name

I don't even like myself that much
But for you
I would become a trickling brook or raging fire
Or whatever else you desire
And I would love to be the one to tell you
The sky is for your eyes
And I would love to write my soul upon yours
And the words that fly from my lips
Because I want my name to be the words upon yours
