is it too much to need you and not want you sometimes
i was broken when you found me and i still am
i run when i'm scared and forget all my reasons
if i lose it all tonight, could you understand?
is it asking the world to shift your perspective
to see the problem through my biased eyes
to drown when i'm drowning and fly when i fly
at least just sometimes
it always feels like all too much
but that's how it's always been
how it might always be
and i really just need a friend
but it's too much to ask someone to stay
when i offer no creature comfort
there's warmth but it never lasts
to hold my hand is choosing to suffer

yet you still walk in pace with me
we might not sync but you're following
and we might not sink so it's not as harrowing
we might be okay and you still care for me

my world is not ending quite yet
might be broken but i'm also blessed
