maw

i didn't want to be back here

how come im back here

 

you were the one that brought me here in the first place

showed me this place of feeling

broke down my walls and carried me away

to this place of colors

both light and dark

 

and then some how we saw it for what it was

and grew together

made it out alive

carrying each other on our backs until we'd

made it across that impossible abyss

 

but now you've taken me back here and why

when it was a fight to the death to get out

why would you toss me back into this maw

with no escape

no you
