about

a song about the feeling of queer heartbreak

lyrics

Dreams
Die faster than butterflies
But dead butterflies are worth more to keep
Hope
Kills faster than cigarettes
But at least cigarettes are cheap

If a dream is a mountain
Then it's too high to climb
If life is an adventure
Then I was left behind
If romance is sacrifice
Then I was the cost
If love is a game
I think I just lost

I
Crash down like a tidal wave
but at least tidal waves don't last
She
Swept me up like a funnel cloud
But dropped me just as fast

If a dream is a mountain
Then it's too high to climb
If life is an adventure
Then I was left behind
If romance is sacrifice
Then I was the cost
If love is a game
I think I just lost

If a dream is a mountain
Then it's too high to climb
If life is an adventure
Then I was left behind
If romance is sacrifice
Then I was the cost
If love is a game
I think I just lost
