Emile Haynie
CONSTELLATIONS
I don't want you thinking that I'm strange
That I'm not brave
I'm at the hotel
It's cheap but it's clean
That's all I need
That's all I need

I don't need them knowing that I'm afraid
And feel out of place
I'm isolated
It's easy, it's safe
Think I like it that way
Think I like it that way
Way

I can sit on the window sill
I'm so still
I can binge watch the sky
No one will see me cry

My tears are constellations
Decorating your ether
Are you gonna leave me now?
Or is it gonna hurt me later?

In a final attempt to be human
I reach out my hand
You touch it and, shit, baby
It's not so bad
It's not so sad
If I pick the rhinestones off the blanket of night
Maybe we can run this town
Maybe I can make a starlit crown or
A buss down chain
Rеmix the rain
Evaporate my pain
Look at it falling
Beautiful magic
Static еlectric
Everything's floating
My tongue is burning

Darling this is all I need
And in my ribcage is where I found it
And let it drive
Maybe we can kiss in public
Maybe we can talk while we sit in traffic

Our dreams are constellations decorating the ether
I can't stop dreaming now
Maybe I'll wake up later
I will always love you now
I will love you forever
