How can you do this to me, I’ve spent years waiting, aching, Disintegrating from the inside, I compare everyone to you, The way your touch, Soothed the pain, Throughout my body, Wrapping your arms around me, And holding me, Like I would fly away, If you loosened your grip, Even slightly, And now I beg you to see me, When you used to say, That you would never leave me, I don’t know what to do, I hold on so tightly, To you, But you don’t know what you want, And I’m waiting for months on end, Just to see your face again, And every body I touched, Meant nothing to me, And you’ve moved, On, and on, and on, and on, While I dread the thought, Of ever loving someone else, It makes the world around me quake, But I’m in so much pain, And I think I have to acknowledge, That I’m waiting in vain, Four years, Of not letting go, It’s time to, Finally, Let myself grow.

Disintegrating
How can you do this to me, I’ve spent years waiting, aching, Disintegrating from the inside, I compare everyone to you, The way your touch, Soothed the pain, Throughout my body, Wrapping your arms around me, And holding me, Like I would fly away, If you loosened your grip, Even slightly, And now I beg you to see me, When you used to say, That you would never leave me, I don’t know what to do, I hold on so tightly, To you, But you don’t know what you want, And I’m waiting for months on end, Just to see your face again, And every body I touched, Meant nothing to me, And you’ve moved, On, and on, and on, and on, While I dread the thought, Of ever loving someone else, It makes the world around me quake, But I’m in so much pain, And I think I have to acknowledge, That I’m waiting in vain, Four years, Of not letting go, It’s time to, Finally, Let myself grow.
