I am childish
And foolish
To think that if I
Kept bringing her darkness
She wouldn't shy away
And turn towards anything
Anything that was brighter
I was foolish
To believe
That I could ever be
The water she needed
To grow and live
When I
Was the acid
Burning through her roots

I break my heart
So I don't break hers
A year of torture for her
And I was the cause

I break my heart into pieces
Trying to love another
The way I loved her
Attempting to give them
What she deserves more than anything
What she deserves more than I do
I don't deserve
A true love
If all I've done
Is hurt the woman
The woman I want to spend my life with

I break my heart
To keep hers beating

— The End —
