And if you were to ask me
Why exactly
I want you to stay,
I wouldn't know how to respond.

Your words
Sharper than any tool
More striking than any migraine
Left me more broken then I was before.

If you were to ask me why I
Still listen to those words
I wouldn't know how to respond.
Is it because they ache in a pain
I deserve, but can't give myself?

If you were to ask me why
I loved you I would know what to say.
Your words true or not
Made me feel a way I didn't know I could again.
There was so much  comfort in your soul
In your mind.
Because
They came from
You.
