I'm a walking tragedy
he knows
we know
I see him in the corner of my eye
peeking through the curtain
I know he's looking
I dreamed
wished upon a blinking star
let me hear his thoughts
I'll never know

use my earrings
may I borrow your lips
take care
so lonely
I'll love you
you will need space
to handle the magnitude
the heaviest you will feel
is with my care and attention

I'm the pouring rain
in this summer heat
I remind myself
to not stick so close
you will melt away
I'll take away your breath
watch your steps
I hear them all
Don't fall
I'll watch you break to pieces
pick a dagger
to hurt you even more

the warmth of love
I swallow
+
easy for me to fall away
easy for me to breathe and fall out of love

you can borrow my heart
no ever keeps it
