If you’ve got a problem, speak it now, 
I don’t have all day, can’t show you how. 
You stir my best memories from the past, 
But I know, in time, they’ll turn to ash. 

I’ve got trust issues, deep as the sea, 
So if you love me, say it honestly. 
Before the sun sinks, and shadows creep, 
Before my mind falls too far, too deep. 

Bad thoughts swirl, a storm in my head, 
Crazy whispers that fill me with dread. 
Don’t bother me when I’m on this edge, 
One wrong word, and I might pledge— 

To forget it all, the good old days, 
Bitter-sweet moments, lost in a haze. 
So much for joy, for laughter’s sound, 
Say you love me, before the sun goes down.
