you tell me that I should fear the world but I can’t just don’t want to, I’ve feared absolutely everything, even my own shadow, my whole life and that hasn’t led anywhere. Fears paralyses us, and I’m sick of living paralysed, stuck here. I watch you slaved from your fears and I really really really don’t wanna be like that. There’s beauty out there, you know? I grew up, you know? You want me to be under your roof but that feels too cold and I really don’t wanna be alone. I wish you just wished to see me happy but that never felt like enough for you.
