10. Become Something Better

You've become sick and contagious. You've become distant and dazed.
You've become my shadow, I your fever dream.
In the image of each other we became.

Lets become better acquainted. Lets change the colors we paint.
Recreate the subject, let the background stay.
When perspective is to blame and the details all seem strange..
When the pieces aren't perfect and the pictures great.

So what if you've resigned to try, to bring to light those moonless nights.
That destiny is also mine because white and black are exactly the same.

We'll be becoming forever. We'll stitch the circle together.
Disregard the dissonance the beauty's within..
A class melody, too ugly to be sweet.
The music says nothing singing in your sleep.

So what if you've resigned to try, to bring to light those moonless nights.
That destiny is also mine because both of us have made our own mistakes.
You and I are exactly the same.
It's okay girl, come outside, breathe deeply and sing:

Become the clouds, enable them to rain.
Become the sun to spite the stars each day.
Become the moon to lead the tide, reflect the light, repeat and wash away.
