a beautiful mess, glitter in the air

Have you ever fed a lover with just your hands? (the sensuality of feeding a loved one)
Closed your eyes and trusted, just trusted...(with out trust there is no love)
Have you ever thrown a fist full of glitter in the air? (a beautiful mess.)
Have you ever looked fear in the face and said "I just don’t care"

It’s only half past the point of no return
The tip of the iceberg
The sun before the burn
The thunder before lightning
The breathe before the phrase
Have you ever felt thIs way? (this whole stanza is so beautiful to me. all the beginnings of huge things to come)

Have you ever hated yourself for staring at the phone? (i know ive done that)
You’re whole life waiting on the ring to prove you’re not alone...(until its not who you wnated and you feel even more secluded than before)
Have you Ever been touched so gently you had to cry? (i wish lol)
Have you ever invited a stranger to come inside?

It’s only half past the point of oblivion
The hourglass on the table
The walk before the run(you know those 2 steps just before you take off. away, is like an escape; toward, is more of anticipation of reaching where ever youre going)
The breathe before the kiss(you know the little one you take just before you meet. if its good kiss you kinda sigh in the middle of it. dnt act brand new)
And the fear before the flames
Have you ever felt this way?
la la la la la la

There you are, sitting in the garden
Clutching my coffee,
Calling me sugar
You called me sugar!

Have you ever wished for an endless night?
Lassoed the moon and the stars and pulled that rope tight
Have you ever held your breathe and asked yourself will it ever get better than tonight?
Tonight...(that is the infamous question. the "do i stay or do i go" "is is ever gonna get better", especially if the tonight was really bad)

i know i threw my 2 cent all in this but if you can just read the song first. Glitter in the Air: Pink and then add in my little footnotes, see if you were thinking what im thinking. great minds think a like...

ps i love this title because when i graduated some of us taped bags of glitter in our hats and we did the hat toss we opened the bags and then threw our hats. it was absolutely splendid, a spectacular air show but right as i covered my eyes i couldnt help but think of the mess this was gonna make. and now that im typing all of this i find my self drawing other conclusions..."we" were just a beautiful mess. the breath before "we need to talk".
