let me live in a world
where we're going the same place
and the likes of you
don't scramble over the skeletons
of the dreams that I put to bed

let me live in a world
where you want to touch my skin
like i just want to see you
person to person
in this world we've got

it's all i've got you know
you
you're my biggest achievement
i'm proud of you because I can't be proud of myself

I've left a lot behind you know, and it feels like decades
it's only been a year
but there's parts of myself that i'm not sure I want to share anymore.

I put me on a shelf
behind statues and chipped clay pots
I pretend I want to get out
i'm unhappy where I am
but it's warm here
it's dry here
but my time is running out

lose everything
gain nothing
it's all the same when I feel like this

I don't know if it's because it's almost been a year
but I might be feeling worse than ever
but I can't find pieces to fit together anymore
I want to see you
because you make a lot of the pieces fit
i'm not sure if it's from bending and twisting the pieces
but i'm not so much pieces of a bigger puzzle
i'm more of a speck of dust floating in your universe

I want to tell you how I feel
but i'm not quite sure how I feel
and that's terrifying
