my life's a rainstorm of "i love you's".
i miss you stepping in the puddles.

to let out all the ghosts.

( i can't help it )

i choose happiness from now on.

( the rain's gonna wash away )

"i wish i had been born a bird instead," he said.
"i wish we had all been born birds instead."

( this is goodbye )
