shattered glass slipping down
throats as if they were words
we forgot to say
right before we never saw one another again
you were my world and
so much of you had left me empty
suddenly i'm doing better because well
there's someone out there who might love me
better than you ever could've
i know you loved me with your heart
but damage is damage
i'm sorry that you think
things won't be okay and i'm
sorry you'll crash
and burn
because i wasn't there to catch you
but you're so young
and i'm going to hurt you
i don't want to come back
maybe we can be friends in the next life
i'm just praying someone holds me the next time
i have the urge to call you
again.
