You’re my earth
[Verse 1]
And with the smile like an ocean wave
You catapult around the sun
To meet me at the other side
To tell me that you found it fun
Swimming in the UV rays
You shouted like the sound of thunder
Booming through my stupid shades
And shook all of the ground undone
I slipped into your beauty like a mudslide
And on my search
I found nothing but upsides
Your arms extend like branches
And whenever we touch
I feel the bark begin to soften up
At all my sappy punch lines
Maybe thats the reason

[Hook]
You're my earth
You're the planet
You're the grass
The wind and tides
And now that you're gone, I feel so out of place
And now that you're gone, I'm just drifting through space
And now that you're gone, I feel so out of place
And now that you're gone, I'm just drifting through space
[Verse 2]
And when we split up like Pangea
I was hoping that we could reform
A land bridge between our separate pieces of the earth
Before our disconnect began to breed a species
That would hurt much more
Than carnivores, herbivores, recklessness or urban swarm
Or maybe I could wash up on a certain shore
Smiling past the long night of drinking
In the lights above the island
Watching lightning flash every time you open up your eyelids
Gentle smirks exploding like a fire in the sky
Till you scared away the forest creatures
Sleeping in the trees
And they began to huddle next to me
Weeping in the leaves
See I've watched you change the temperature
Increasing the degrees
Till the warmth was just enough to let them nestle into peace
I never thought there'd be a problem that we couldn't solve
When you control the weather's climate
And the sea levels and all
But I suppose when an earthquake splits the crust among the faults
I shouldn't act as if the damage wouldn't break up those involved

[Hook]
You were my earth
You were the planet
You were the grass
The wind and tides
And now that you're gone, I feel so out of place
And now that you're gone, I'm just drifting through space
And now that you're gone, I feel so out of place
And now that you're gone, I'm just drifting through space
