It’s hard to move forward
When you keep pulling me back
But I have to let you go
Or I’ll just be in this same place forever
Brick by brick
You built a wall
And no matter how much
I want to
I can’t save you
From you
Thank you
Thank you for being there for me
When I wasn’t even there for myself
Thank you
For being you
And letting me be me
And I’m sorry you…
No matter how hard I try
I can’t remember a time
When you didn’t consume
Every part of me
Love was here
All along
I just had to open my heart
To accept it
My soul had never known peace
Until the sky was still
And every star in the sky
Seemed to exist only for us
When the world fell silent
And the only sounds
Were between
You and I
I am not her
I never was
That’s a person
You created
Not one I have to own
Your words are not law
They’re just murmurs in the wind
And…
What lies behind those eyes
Another broken soul
Looking for connection
Summoned by my siren song
Or are you the fabled one
Who has come to tame the beast
That…
