I Have A Dreamsicle (Song)

Okay, so here's the deal, folks. I have been listening a LOT to Owl City (Relient K has been a strong influence here as well). So this song is written in a very artsy fartsy rhyming fashion, similarly paced to an Owl City song (in my head). While the parts at first seemed very dissonant (aka, not meshing), I think I worked it out well enough that I like how it sits altogether. So enjoy.

all the shallow girls
leave their hearts on the shore
hoping that the waves will leave pain replete
and the ones with unmet dreams
don't cry anymore
for their struggles are buried six feet deep

so sleep,
let the winds take your hand
feel the beat
from the smooth ocean sands
all the glaciers will melt
from the warmth we have felt
when we're together...

but when you wake up
you wanna run from the fear
just like your makeup
streams of black from your tears

but when the sobs have died down
and your eyes stop drowning
if you could only see
the overbearing joy in me
just from you hearing my name
on your lips

my heart is doing backflips
as you walk on by
and then the dream slowly slips away
i can't help but sigh
and hope for a new day
