Each time it gets better,
Only to get worse,
Each time I write a letter,
It's like I seal a curse
But I'm still here.
Somehow I'm still breathing.
But somewhere on the way.
My heart stopped beating.
Now I don't know what it is,
I feel in my chest,
But if you can't handle my worst,
Why should you get my best?
You put a silence to my vibrance,
A stop in my groove,
Squeezed out all the color,
And dimmed my mood.
I wanted a little help.
Something to get by,
It's kinda hard to do,
When you can't get high
High enough to contain,
All the rage and the pain,
It's never seemed to matter,
But I'll try and explain
I want a little warmth,
Something not cold,
Maybe something real,
True, strong, and bold.
You could show me a world,
That I have never seen,
A seldom experience,
Far and inbetween
Take me to a place,
Where I'm not all wrong.
Where I can just sit,
And sing you my song
Free of any judgement,
Away from prying ears.
I'll tell you all my secrets,
And each of my fears.
And you can wipe away,
All these old tears,
Scrape off the rust,
From these past years,
You're always so close,
But yet so far.
I always wanna tell you,
When we're in the car.
But I never do,
I just keep moving.
I wish you the best,
whatever your doing.
It's not your fault,
That you touched my heart.
You had no idea,
What three words could start.

This one means a lot.
