There were times we swayed
High on you
High on me
But do you realize
Times have strayed
Into paths unhinged
With breathless pain

Your description
Was everything I'm not
Her virtue
Her hands
These brought you joy
Then you saw me
And that made you feel
Liberated and free
It was all surreal

I am the worst
Sweet is my tongue
Heavy sit my word
I am your best fear
The one you hold dear

Here I go writing to you again
About these feelings
About us
About dreams
But I am pain
I am love
I am hope
I am naught
The everything
And all in one

I am the not for you
Can't you see what is true?
Those nights you remember you weren't made for them
