Sometimes it's not an upgrade that's needed,
You don't need to change, but instead
Change back.

You don't need to upgrade but be
Restored.
Back to the old you, the real you.

The boy who loved, unconditionally and openly,
Who sang songs and wrote poems,
The boy you've locked away inside,
Each shattered love adding to the bars on your jail,
Each broken heart becoming a stone building your wall higher
Each song filled with heart ache echoing through the cell that's become what's left of your heart.

I don't want to change you,
I want to restore you.
Things I'll Never Say
