Meteor Shower

I counted every falling star tonight
Hoping one would hear my prayer
But they burn out before they hit the ground
Just like us
Just like us

Maybe we were always meant to crash
(Beautiful destruction)
Maybe love’s just cosmic ash
(Dust and false instructions)

I'm caught in your meteor shower!
(Burning up in your atmosphere)
Pretend we last more than an hour!
(Say we’re more than shooting stars)

Your gravity still pulls my tide
Even as you comet-fade
I collect the light you left behind
(Fool’s gold and masquerade)

(If time could shatter like glass)
Would we still be broken fast?
(Or just orbit the past)
Forever eclipsed by our crash

Maybe we were always meant to crash
(Beautiful destruction)
Maybe love’s just cosmic ash
(Dust and false instructions)

I'm caught in your meteor shower!
(Burning up in your atmosphere)
Pretend we last more than an hour!
(Say we’re more than shooting stars)

I'm caught in your meteor shower!
(Burning up in your debris)
We were never meant to land anyhow!
(Just to blaze and set love free)
