I'm subtle like an atomic bomb keep my words laid back and calm my heart is a glass grenade feel it crack when my love fades but still, I stayed but still, I stayed in this charade and built around a barricade you know I'd rather talk this out spent a decade to you devout by your side through the drought so quiet we would never shout but still, I doubt but still, I doubt the chosen route and if I'd prefer to go without (your tongue a jacketed hollow point we've never gone to bed angry... but regret, guilt, and empty sadness is a fragile yet different parallel) (I suspect my veins course with plutonium and uranium... I leak radioactive decay, my half-life disintegrating) there's a stillness when I explode for a moment, time is slowed you're in disbelief that I'd reload the same feelings, the same road but still, I bowed but still, I bowed to your code and stayed despite what you showed my atoms begin anew to divide no longer stable, can I abide I feel a part of me has died when to leave, I must decide but still, I cried but still, I cried by your side until the day I walked out in stride (your love is a weapon I've been held at gunpoint for so long... I never wanted to hurt you but I can't keep hurting myself, either)
