La Belleza

The beauty of watching the firewood burn
Like a wave that rises
And just after it crashes
A candle that flickers and burns out
From the last ray of sun
That lights up the whole scene

Look at everything we've been through
If you see me falling, why do you hold on?

A star when it disintegrates
An apple on the ground
That’s ripe, it’s the good one
The first few seconds when you wake up
And the last moments of a hug when you hold on tightest

Look at everything we've been through
If you see me falling, why do you hold on?

And here I am, playing at living without air
My love, life isn’t a straight line for anyone
But no, don’t unpack your bags
There are stories that don’t end, they just get completed

Look at everything we've been through
