if you'd rip my skin off
Underneath it'd say
Thank you for loving me
As I'm bleeding under your hands
It's all you can see
Just "thank you for loving me"
Your touch cuts me
like a hard punch from a kings fist
Diamonds split my lips
And I still strangle out the syllables
Thank you for loving me
Your love was a seed I planted in my skin
And it grew into dandelions
In my eyes their yellow brilliance couldn't compare
But my friends screamed that they were nothing but weeds
Barbs on leaves hooking me
Sinking me deeper
For your smile I'd resurface
To say
Thank you
For loving me
Don't take this to heart

i like to put raspebrries on my fingers
and i like to smoke cigarettes in my window
i like to torture myself
cause i like to kiss you
and i like to think its childish
that you have to date to love
but my friends like to say that im killing myself
but the truth is im killing us instead
i like to give myself pain
like you gave me time and time again
i like to think we'll be okay
i just dont know when
taylor i love you and im sorry for that

i cant be what you need.

you dont know me
once the lights go out
you dont know me
once my blood starts running
you dont know me
when i collapse on the floor screaming
you dont know me
when i scratch at my skin
you dont know me
you dont know my sin
you dont know me
the depths i hide within
you dont

You know that scar that you have
The one on your right hand
On the soft spot between your thumb and your pointer finger
That one

I remember when you cut yourself
I remember hoping that it would leave a big scar
One of the ones people notice
And ask you about

Because I knew this was too good to last
You would grow bored
And look for someone new

I knew that

And I hoped that when your new girl asked you how you got that scar
The one on your right hand
On the soft spot between your thumb and your pointer finger

You would look at it
Think of me
Think of my family
Think of Christmas
Think about my smile
And the way I loved you

You would look at it
With a pain in your chest
And say you don't remember

I almost drove to California today
I like to pretend that love is the key
I miss the ocean
I wish I was dead more often than not
I haven’t eaten in two days
I miss you more than ill ever admit
Im begging to get over you
Though im begging to lie next to you
I cant remember the last time we kissed
I want the waves to wash you away
Wipe my brain of the lessons you taught me
About how to love
And how to let go

I would crawl to your house, with broken legs, and a splinter in my thumb and without a jacket, in a snow storm, just to see your smile and feel your embrace.
You deserve the world baby
You deserve this.  We deserve this.
I love you for you.  Your kindness, your thoughts, your love.  Your soul.  You are like no other person.
You're divine, my love
I'll hold your hand through everything
Kiss that sweaty forehead and ****
Dig the grave for the ******* that try to stop us
I love you Ashley.
