I conquered my demons
For you
I built everything
For you
I tried anything
For you
I pleaded and begged
For you

Now you're doing the same
But not for me

Take the breath
Out of my lungs
The fear
Out of my heart
The worry
Out of my mind
The anxiety
Out of my nerves

I wanted to be
Somebody else's
Before
I wanted to be
Yours

So don't let me
Slip through your grasp

Its the way
You praise me
Call me yours
Break me down
In the best way
You make me weak
And feel strong
So throw me
And hold me
Call me
Well you know

I write sometimes
And feel like
My own audience
I read
And re-read
Until I finish
Then I look at my words
And sometimes
I throw roses
And sometimes
I throw tomatoes

To be as capricious as I
And not drive people away
Is a delicate act.

Gave my breath
To what I had left
In the dark with a cigarette
An empty bed
And just one barrette
I hope you get some rest
Gave you my best
I know I won't forget
Our melancholic duet
