once when you were drunk
you told me you liked
the way my tongue felt against yours
when I kiss you

and then you got all embarrassed that you said it
and I think that was the moment that changed
everything
because now I can't imagine anything without you.

Do you ever feel like everything around you isnt where you were supposed to end up?

Like the thing you are would have been different if you were stronger
Like if the music wasn't so loud it might be easier to think about what's right
Like the shouting makes a difference in what you should do
Like knowing how everyone around you feels
Selfishly and curiously and sadly
I know

But what I didn't do
Was show her my scars,
Identical to hers

And what I didn't say
Was "look, you're not alone."

What I did do
Was smile,
And say
"Have a good one."

Hopefully, a smile was what she needed...

I'd do anything
To save you.
To stop all of the hate.

I'd do anything
To fix your heart.
To stop your pain.

I'd do anything
To show you.
To stop your mind from closing.

I'd do anything
For you.
To stop you from leaving.

I wish I had someone
To do anything for me.
