"Perfect Storm"
by Lamont, Stargurl, & James Tristan Redding
Coming into something in broken pieces If only she was here we would all be together Half of me is a missed connection The other half is still waiting on a train
A perfect storm The call that never comes A house with no foundation
There are clouds that decorate my vision Mountains with black waves and take me from here I slipped through the cracks and came out blue And now I thought I got a lot of time to think about it
A perfect storm The call that never comes A house with no foundation
And it all falls through As it so often do The worst the true And I become brand new Baby for you
