This Is Americ@

Emojis on Scorched Earth

I’m floating on a memory

Soaring to my destiny

And it’s nice to know that

All at once you are with me

And you’re the only one I’m thanking

For all the love in my heart

Orange souls

Rosetta stones

And desert roses on a melting road

Spirits fly over head and hold me forever and ever

Nothing hurts more than a love that never began

When you lose more than just being friends

A sad clown can weep for a fool

Who gives away so foolishly

A heart that hasn’t earned the right to bleed

I I led melt in the cold

As our breath preach the lies we sold

I shout away the dark of the moon

And weep in an empty room

Don’t leave me unless you really mean it

Don’t touch me unless you need it

Do t love me just to beat it

Don’t love me just to feel it
