Reflections from a Coffee Shop

Verse 1 I sit here and pretend Pretend and imagine Life is a movie set, and I’m the leading role All eyes on me, the city feels like magic Step into my scene, setting fire to my soul Verse 2 The coffee shop’s alive But they’re all just extras And I’m a 20-something, semi-lost artist at heart I’m here for the change For the love and connection For the culture that pulls this whole world apart Chorus And then I see those blue eyes Cutting through the noise, through the crowded room They pierce me like sunlight Breaking through a sky I thought I knew You’re my antagonist, yet you’re my reason You take and you give, you burn and you heal If love will work, then we can believe in All love is life, and all life is real Verse 3 You’re the breath that I take And the ache in my ribcage You’re the dark abyss I can’t help but fall into I give you what you want You take all that you can But I keep reaching out just to feel you Chorus And then I see those blue eyes Cutting through the noise, through the crowded room They pierce me like sunlight Breaking through a sky I thought I knew You’re my antagonist, yet you’re my reason You take and you give, you burn and you heal If love will work, then we can believe in All love is life, and all life is real Bridge Set me free Be my savior Be my nurturing heart Every scene Every layer Still, I play this part Final Chorus Blue eyes in the coffee shop Cutting through the noise, through the crowded room You’re the one thing I can’t stop Even when the credits start to bloom You’re my antagonist, yet you’re my reason You take and you give, you burn and you heal If love will work, then we can believe in All love is life, and all life is real
