maybe you can hurt me
but you can't cut as deep
i press into the wound
all you do is squeam
if you're gonna do it
gotta commit to it
otherwise just leave me alone
i can make things worse just fine on my own
i wanna be better
to deserve what i already own
you seek a higher level
to upgrade your goals
that's the major difference
between us both
i've wanted you all along
yet someday i'll be outgrown
the pieces of me
my dichotomies
don't fit pretty
or at all

clashing next to each other
mustard and peanut butter
different mothers
must be my fault

that i can't be one thing
or the same version of me
for every person i meet
like a doll

just a cess pool of thought
pandora's box
i am and i'm not
the rise and fall
you have to love both of us
don't wanna be a bother
or impeach on your time
i'm nobody special
and it's easier to hide
but you say it's okay
i'm not too bad for now
i wanna feel safe
you tell me to stick around
how long does that last
until you get bored
when you've got your attention
and don't need me anymore
because i'm tired of being broken
to make people feel whole
i try my best to help
but i'm just cast to fill a role
because she's not here
but when she comes back
we'll be strangers again
i'd bet a pretty dime on that
what you could've had
never left your mind
tethered to me now
but dream of the other life
you wish you could've had
i never meant to hold you back
she is all you ever wanted
and i'm all you'll ever have
all i wanna be is taken
broken on the altar
staring at your light
free from the pain of this form
it hurts so softly
lifted off my feet
i know what comes next
and i want it
tired of the same **** problems
i just wanna be yours
fix me like i can't manage for myself
i won't fight your cure
