You picked up,
for the first time in a while

I just had to do this and I don't know why

You say you're busy;
you don't have much time

I only called to say I think I'll be just fine

I felt my heart begin to pound
Your voice had that familiar sound..

I saw you slowly walk up those stairs
I knew I was right to be so scared..

The way you looked at me..
I could barely breathe..

The air was heavy with doubt
Who knew silence could be so loud?

Loving you was always so hard..
..I guess..
*"We're better apart."

You said "inconvenient"
"Unpractical"

Every small sentiment
Had to be tactical

Rejection eminent
Walls are habitual..

Always "inconvenient"
"Unpractical"

No disagreement
It's factual

Too infrequent
Becoming classical

Solely "inconvenient"
"Unpractical"*

For your convenience
Made me fragile

You're transparent
Hardly infallible..

I'm going to take you to another kind of place,
But, honey, you have to make sure you're ready.
I can promise highs without needing to take hits,
But you'll have to hold on tight because **** gets heavy

I know that things won't always be steady
Your shoulders may sometimes carry additional weight..
I'm unaware if you're used to that already

While I confess it has a certain type of mystique,
My story has been extreme; the loads have been hefty.
The waves of life that I get to ride are an enigma..
Will you be able to cope with it when **** gets heavy?

Those lines separating right from wrong get a bit blurry..
Will you be in over your head when things escalate?
Don't come if you're afraid of this getting messy..

You'll be given a crash-course in why I constantly stress.
The few that pass are the few that impress me.
The reward is a loyalty that has yet to fail
So don't lose your breath or fall to panic; **** gets heavy
