Will you leave? Or will I? We can’t survive together, We can’t survive apart. We can’t survive with each other, No matter the size of my heart. I love you, I leave you, I break my heart either way. So please, darling For one time only, Just tell me to stay. One word is all it takes But one word less And my heart breaks. I can’t brave this scary world Without a tread to follow. Because the horror of this world Is far too hard to swallow. I don’t want to do this alone. I know I can, I have before, But it won’t be for long, Because I see you Weak on your own, Do I make you strong? Look at me. Thinking this, While I know what is true, You pick me up, I do the same, But the stronger one is you. So I cling, and I follow, But it’s not until I look. And when I see you, Who I’ve been holding all along, I know I can’t let go. I can’t do this alone. It hurts to let go, It hurts us both. But we get lost together, We get lost in each other, Alone in the world, And stay behind forever. Cutting the bind either saves us both Or leads us into darkness. At least as far as I can see. So tell me, darling, What do you think? Are we meant to be?
