If this is my last resort, why are you opening so many doors? Why are you still reaching out to me? Lost doesn’t even begin to describe it We’re stuck in a glass maze Everywhere I look, I can see you, But all I can touch is cold, and I leave fingerprints behind You told me to be the storm, forthcoming Just a warning, I’m coming for you Because you left without me and you’re so ******* far Please You crashed into me in ways I did not give you permission to Oh, sweet combustion I am not a mechanic and you did not try to save me Girl is a catastrophe, but my God is she still kicking I’ve lost my footing, I still can’t reach your hand You’ve taught me that I need to love someone enough to forgive them I need to walk away with a broken heart and not apologize But I can’t find common ground Please rope me into the stars you promised Show me the angels that fell and left you in their wake Patch my spacesuit before I bleed infinity and really mean it this time I’m sorry I’m apologizing again, but you deserve it I wasn’t listening when you told me not to let go of the tether I was reaching for the atmosphere I forgot what fresh air tastes like Please take me home, now.
