I can’t get the words out,
They’re weighing me down.
They’re fighting and pushing up my head.
I love you
I love you
I love you, but I’m drowning in the weight of you.
I see you holding back.
I see you fighting too.
And the hurt you feel, hurts me as well.
Seeing the cracks,
The bruises,
The scars,
It’s haunting me when I close the door.
I hurt on my own,
I hurt myself,
And my future.
You’re my reason.
I’m fighting, for you.
I’m living, for you.
I can’t be enough.
I can’t say enough.
I can never say the right thing,
And make it all better.
Our problems won’t disappear,
We can only put them off for so long.
But you my dear,
Will be my ticket to the show.
And I for you.
