if i still flinch at the things that scare me
does that mean i'm still alive?
some days i'm not sure

i'm a stencil of a body
with a beating heart in the middle
like a stick figure
only you can't guess my letters

some say i'm a mystery
they can't figure me out
i think i'm drawn to that too
that hidden sadness inside

the more i know about you
the more i make sense

when you hurt
i can feel it
when you're happy
i can feel it

the pain is still real
i'm still alive
and we're breathing
somehow together
until one of us leaves

i still flinch because this scares me

there's an end in sight

today i am sure

kiss me goodnight
