Backseat Goodbye - 11:12

you took your hand from the sky
said you were tired of doing someone else's job
then the moon fell and shattered on the ground
i said "i'm sorry for the last six months,
it's not your fault you're stronger than the sky"

the nights were darker 'til they put it back together
the days were brighter though
i thought so at least
i climbed the clouds with you
when it was time to take it back
it looked awfully heavy, but you just said
"relax, i'm just pretending to play God...
it's a one time thing, i promise
besides, i can quit when i want."

and then the rain fell
onto our eyelashes
we closed our eyes on that Tuesday night
and held our hands together

but nothing ever happened and never will
you're as human as me
i'm as flawless as you
perfect is a word made up by a fool

you can't count on page to erase all your doubt
a few dollars won't make that broken heart any better
a flower can't heal time
but the truth can take lies from their pedestal
and push them to the floor

you can't prove you'll miss me if you don't stay
a pictures worth a thousand words, but your love is much more
we can say "one day" all we want
but i'd much rather it be "today"
you're on tip toes waiting for the sunlight
and i can't wait for this rain to go away
