one decision to make

I found this boy

he holds the world in his head

and he drowns in neuronal roller coasters from the comfort of his bed


I found this girl

she reminds me of the sun

and the night that I met her I knew she was the one


he's so intelligent

knows exactly what to say

but nobody understands him, at least until today


she's so understanding

I felt I spoke nonsense before

so eventually I went silent

but today I want to tell her more


this boy I am learning rarely ever speaks

and his heart has gotten heavy from the secrets that he keeps


this girl I am learning fears the unknown

and some of her experiences should have made her heart stone


I found this boy

his eyes contain stars

and he spent most of his life driving completely silent cars


I found this girl

her laughter could cure

and I've never felt an energy quite so pure


this boy, this girl

one decision to make

will they fall in love or make each other's hearts break
