Simple Math

As everything flashes before my eyes,
Past regrets weigh my every step,
Meaningless acts and alibis,
Every moment I have wept.

These crashing waves of memory,
Washing me to shore,
All the people who held faith in me,
Waiting behind the door.

Help me open this gate,
Every second at the latest,
Let's turn over a new slate,
And build on our love that is the greatest.

Build the bridges to connect our path,
Before our lives come tumbling down,
You and me is such simple math,
This is our common ground.

Boards made of trust,
Put together with care,
Metal that can never rust,
As long as we are there.

It never is cold,
Our hearts provide all the heat,
A priceless value never sold,
Kissed with every beat.

Help me open this gate,
Every second at the latest,
Let's turn over a new slate,
And build on our love that is the greatest.

Build the bridges to connect our path,
Before our lives come tumbling down,
You and me is such simple math,
This is our common ground.

Light fills the deepest crevice,
Through the worst of all drought,
The power of radiance will let us,
Be polymerized until the sun burns out.

Even though the dark will always be enough to tempt,
The strength of our souls will carry,
Like the words said always meant,
Our skeletons we forever will bury.

Help me open this gate,
Every second at the latest,
Let's turn over a new slate,
And build on our love that is the greatest.

Build the bridges to connect our path,
Before our lives come tumbling down,
You and me is such simple math,
This is our common ground.

As we traverse these bumps in the road,
All these memories set in stone,
These burdens carry a heavy load,
Luckily you and I will never have to bear alone.
