Today I get to say
I am a fool
I look for the answers that lie
In plain sight
But yet they seem unreachable, ungraspable
This unfamiliar face that glances back at me in the mirror
It makes me feel the weight of the world
There's no way to change it, no way to face it
So on the ground I remain curled
This monster it has a name
This monster inside of me, it has a name too
This name I wouldn't dare pronounciate
If it didn't share it's name with you
Yes you'd be surprised to know I love you
I grin, because part of you knew it well
This tremendous guilt you feel because of me
It glimmers brightly in my eyes, though I continue to deny
You are falling ever so quickly, I fall with you
Don't tell me to save myself now
Some things mean more to people than their life
And you know darling, at first I just did not see how
But that was before I met you
You are what makes my sky blue
You are the stars that burn at night
You are the object that I involuntarily revolve around
You are the wings that carry me through flight
I've spent so long in the shadow of your attention
Never top priority, and though it breaks what's left of my heart
I run away from my friends, and I run back to you, though it might kill me to try
Because I'd rather die alone than live alone.
