I'm afraid to fall asleep
Because if I sleep
I'll dream
And if I dream
I'll dream only of you
Not of the way
That your smile is beautiful
Or the way that your laughter is contagious
No -
Instead, I'll dream
Corruptions
Tragedies
Fatal accidents
Yes -
The way you'll jump for your escape
By leaping from your chains
Or the way you'll jump for your life
By leaping to your death
Off a heightened building;
Or the way in which
Unknowingly
You'll drag me down along with you
Because I can't live without you.

And I hate the fact that I hurt you and that you'll never forgive me, and that's why I'm tearing myself apart...
