If I could only tell you
How much pain I’m in
If I could only share
How I feel
I know I can’t right now
It wouldn’t be fair
To burden you so
Not right now
When you are already
Carrying so much
So right now
I carry enough love
For both of us
Uphill
In the rain
Of my tears
You inspire me
To stand next to you
Even when
Your back is turned to me
You better be worth it
The weight of all this
Crushing my heart
Every vertebra of my love
Feels the weight of you
The weight of us
On my shoulders
All I can see
Is what is at my feet
The next step
In front of me
Plodding on
Without encouragement
What I do for you
You better be worth it
Love me like no other
No other loves you as much
Am I crazy?
Are you crazy?
Are we crazy together?
Yes
Yes
And I don’t know
I know I’m worth love
Are you worth mine?
You better be worth it
All this pain for naught?
Well
I’ll learn how strong I am
I’ll learn something from this
What I want to learn is
How much You love Me
‘Cause I’m tired of these
One way head trips
So here I am
Holding my heart
In my outstretched hands
Blood dripping on my feet
Giving you the space and time
You need
I hope you’re worth me
If you are curious, no, she wasn't. I wasn't. We weren't.
