I thought you did
Perhaps I was right
But only for a night
Should I even still write?
Did I give you a fright?
I said I wouldn’t bite
Was it even a fight?
I think I caused your flight.
I thought we were
Altogether okay
Was it just for a day?
Did you simply play?
Did I push you away?
I wanted you to stay
The light turned to grey
My heart starts to fray
I think I lost my way.
I thought I could
Stop wanting to cry
Stop asking why
I wish I could lie
My mind wants to die
Look me in the eye
Tell me why I still try?
I’m screaming at the sky
I think I’ve bled dry.
