For Joe
Its hard to take off from the ground when your wings are cut
Your stomach burns when your drinking from an empty cup
You know the entire ocean came from my tear ducts
I see the world through fibonacci sequences and double dutch
I guess there's some that's born lucky and there's some that's not
I tried to cut away my bitterness hatchet job
I locked my troubles in a trunk inside a pick up truck
Then dumped the whole thing over the same bridge the one you jumped
I think about that sometimes, vividly
What it felt like to look down and see tranquility
One sudden movement in a world of possibility
Only one movement to expose our fragility
I fucking miss you and I miss myself
I miss thinking that were indestructible as hell
I miss chilling by the pier cave and kicking back
With callum hugo saga justin stevie and the fuckin lads
I miss missing that I numbed myself to close the gap
I never even call em up the distance is my plaster cast
The truth is that the day you jumped my childhood jumped too
But I still can't find the anger all I find is missing you
Man I miss you
With all my rhymes
I picture running 5 minutes quicker I'm right on time
I picture pulling you back over the edge and then were crying
And holding you my brother and telling you that its fine
That's not the way that I worked
Cause I was late like a jerk
There's not a day I didn't find a way to break from the hurt
Your body missing so we never got to wave to the hearse
I hope your listening, I love you man, I miss you absurd
Fuck
Burn burn burn on
Burn burn burn on
Another domino it falls
Across the way another's born
How you supposed to raise a child?
And give it courage from a storm
In a world that is confusing
Contradictions pave our flaws
Some will say 'we're only human'
Others judge us for a flaws
Some get born in sheets of satin
Some get by in tattered clothes
Some will die before they live
That's just how the story goes
But for those of us still with us
Who reside inside our hearts
Tell them proudly how you feel
And for those of us who aren't
Freckled angels stand strong
Freckled angels live on
Freckled angels climb higher
Freckled angels still inspire
Freckled angels won't forget you
Teach me to live my life better
Thirteen years and still I miss you
Now my wings are missing feather
Otherwise id come and join you
But for now I'm here on earth
Stuck inside this mortal body
But for everything its worth
Made me braver, made me wiser, made me stronger, made me true
Made me face the world with courage
And that's all because of you
Freckled angels laugh the hardest
And their hearts they are the largest
With their wings they fly the farthest
So I know you're gonna be okay
Freckled angels live the longest
And their minds they are the strongest
Oh their friends they are the fondest
So I know you're going to be okay
