Assuming

Hey

You

Step back and see

Is this the place?

You expect me to be

 

I can see your face but it hides

No shame

 

Hey did you

Really

Think that we'd be

Happy?

 

Yeah I

Could have seen

The future

If you'd let me.

Maybe I'll hold You down,

Repeat

Your name.

 

How could you say?

How could you presume

To know me?

 

Or maybe

I

should have seen

The glaze of your eyes

Over

I should not

Have

Hoped

In this

 

I felt your heart

I felt your heart

I felt

Your

Heart

 

And it

Was

Just as

My own

 

I scream

scream

Scream

No!

There is more.

I am not just what you

Think me.

I!

Want to know!

 

Please assume

You can.

Withstand me
