Sara outsmokes the sky
My hands graze the concrete
I search for the words that feel right
Decode the message, the space, and the heat

Phinney never says goodbyes
When he leaves the house for work
You can see the look in his eye
When he holds up the picture of her

It haunts me
The way it ends
Unfurling
No consequences

Jack, he took me by surprise
After all the seasons of hurt
Like a base, I’ll steal this try
The leap’s a portal to another world

It’s daunting
I can’t pretend
Unfurling
No consequences

I haven’t seen these things I dream
About as much anymore
