Your life is a tragedy
& you are a ticking time bomb
You're drowning yourself from the inside out,
trying to forget how to feel
But you make it home at night & its all
still there with you
Like the blood in your veins
It swims through your skin
It seeps from your walls
It climbs in your bed
And pulls on every wire in your
malfunctioning head
Now I know you're consumed
Seeing red when you close your eyes
But I wanna take it all away from you
Your cuts make their way into my skin
I swear I feel every ******* pill you swallow
And all the blood you lose makes
me light headed too
I can't tell you I love you enough to make
you believe it
I know just what you're doing
I used to play this game too
You think you need to protect
me from yourself
Like the heroic ware-wolf
that builds his own confinement
before a full moon
You are hiding yourself away
Holding yourself at bay
Trying not to get in anyone's way
Because
Every night is the eve of
your next breakdown
I get it
But I've seen worse
I've felt worse
And I can hold my own
Just let me hold you too
Please
I'd do anything to be the one who
wipes your tears
And kisses your forehead
And tells you I love you
Even when you are overflowing with hate
I'd do anything to be the one who
makes it over your walls
Just to show you
that you're more than worth
all the chaos you create
