This is dangerous
Im falling to hard
Moving to fast
The smoke fills my head
Fogging my vision
And setting off alarms
But I don't know if you even smell sulfur
Where are you
Are you next to me
Or out at sea
I can't know
Are you convincing yourself to let go
Or falling just as hard for me
Am I on your mind or an afterthought
I can't see
I can't breathe
Will you carry me out of the burning building of my anxious mind
Or will the weight of me and my burdens
Cause you to run away
How do I tell you
That I need you without pushing you away

On second thought none of it matters
But why do you matter to me
Oh why do I always choose to lose
Why does my mind trap me inside
Im thinking too much and breathing too little
I just want to hear you say that at least for now you can stay
Just for tonight show me it's no fault of mine
