These ugly words
Combined on this page
Create terrible pain
Yet somehow
When you breathe upon my neck
These ugly words
Create beautiful madness

Im a drifter

I go from one place to another

Leaving people behind

I don't mean to be a drifter you see

It has become a bit of a habit

If I love you

I must leave

Not to save you exactly

But to spare you the heartache

Have you ever stopped to wonder

How the moon feels?

We put so much faith into her
We spill our darkest secrets to her
We give our very souls to her

But...

What if she doubts herself

What if she...
Doesn't feel good enough for you
Doesn't feel worthy
Doesn't feel beautiful
Doesn't think she is worth anyone's time

What if she is hurting too

I feel that I have failed
To do the one thing I was designed to do

To pour my heart into the empty spaces in your chest
To replace the raging chaos in your mind with the bright light that leaks from my lips
To give you a sense of belonging when the world denies you

I feel that I have failed
To do the one thing I was designed to do

To hold you so tightly that your broken pieces would mold back into one
To put your insecurities to sleep inside of my bones
To dry your tears with my hands that will soak up every last one of your fears

I feel that I have failed
To do the one thing I was designed to do

I feel that I have failed
Failed to save you

I tried to keep you from hurting
I tried so hard
I tried to keep my madness from you
I tried to hard
I tried to keep from hurting you
I tried so hard
I tried
But all I did was make it worse
I tried so hard
I tried
I
I failed
I failed miserably
