Love's Rocket Launch: Unraveling Liang Lawrence's Heartfelt Odyssey
Lyrics
sat up back against the wall
Sat up back against the wall
your bed frame and a mattress off the floor
Your bed frame and a mattress off the floor
i handed you my heart last night
I handed you my heart last night
it wasn’t too unlike a rocket launch,
It wasn’t too unlike a rocket launch,
a taking off of all our garments
A taking off of all our garments
and darling you manned it
And darling you manned it
we’re only go when you say so
We’re only go when you say so
we’re only go when you say so
-oh, if it were simple i’d take the escape route and parachute into the sky
Oh, if it were simple I’d take the escape route and parachute into the sky
but you get to lying and it feels like i’m flying when you tell me i’m someone you like
But you get to lying and it feels like I’m flying when you tell me I’m someone you like
when you tell me i’m someone you like
When you tell me I’m someone you like
so how was i supposed to take it when you said it’s not like this with others, darling, you
So how was I supposed to take it when you said it’s not like this with others, darling, you
didn’t even stutter
Didn’t even stutter
looking back i should’ve known you only speak in lines of code and jokes that you landed
Looking back I should’ve known you only speak in lines of code and jokes that you landed
were straight from a hand book
Were straight from a handbook
of things that went right in previous test flights
Of things that went right in previous test flights
god i’m so stupid for not seeing right through it
God, I’m so stupid for not seeing right through it
we’re only go when you say so
We’re only go when you say so
oh, if it were simple i’d take the escape route and parachute into the sky
Oh, if it were simple I’d take the escape route and parachute into the sky
but you get to lying and it feels like i’m flying when you tell me i’m someone you like
But you get to lying and it feels like I’m flying when you tell me I’m someone you like
and if i were braver, darling, i’d pull the lever
And if I were braver, darling, I’d pull the lever
tell you you’re wasting my time
Tell you you’re wasting my time
but you get to lying and it feels like i’m playing
But you get to lying and it feels like I’m playing
oh, it’s only my heart on the line
Oh, it’s only my heart on the line
wont you tell me i’m someone you like?
Won’t you tell me I’m someone you like?
