Beta Radio - Destined to Pretend

Copied!

{Verse 1}
I heard your summer spirit sing
In bathing suits on Orca’s Beach
At night the bay swallowed me
You’re an arm length away but out of reach
All my thoughts at once were tangled
As my soul unspooled like a string
Here all eternal moments wait
Is it a myth that I create
Can we find a way to mend
Are we just destined to pretend

Super massive stars explode
On July the 4th all time slowed
You said you hated me but I didn’t know
The collapse you felt around your soul
Above our own heads heaven dangles
Hung up by the thinnest string
Here all eternal moments wait
In the hell that I create
The darkened skies descend
Are we just destined to pretend

{Verse 2}
I felt your summer spirit leave
The night the light left Orcas Beach
By the bay I strain to see
What light is left for you and me
When we were near our bodies tangled
When we were here our eyes believed
Here all eternal moments wait
Your hair fell on my face
On the horizon light ascends
Are we just destined to pretend
