You put up all these walls between us And now I know why It's not because you don't want to let me in It's not because you're afraid of attachment Or committing Or rejection Or loss No, you push me away So ******* far away Because you want to make sure that you drown I'll never let go, even if you do Because I'm the Jack to your Rose And I swear, I would rather die drowning With my last image being you Half-conscious and hypothermic Lips blue and eyes delusional Gorgeous and pulling it off, like only you can I would rather see you like this Knowing that my drowning saved you Than be alive and apart from you Knowing that you were drowning yourself
