you only see me when you need to
when love's left you on the ground
you look to me to pick you up
but once you're up
you're gone

chase that rabbit in the snow
yearn for your world that's long been broken
just fall deeper
it seems better
ignoring me, a chance, a risk

I let you see me as a child
always putting me in second place
if anything I've learned from you
this must be most important
you always say but don't believe that

my heart comes first
This is about my past with my boyfriend and my own struggle for self-realization through those difficult times.
Sitting on the edge
Don't you dare look down
For the end is coming soon
And it's coming just for you

We all bet on life
And so we will loose
Every day has a darkest hour
But yours is coming soon

You say that you are safe
But the edge is always there
So I will sit and wait
For you to finally care

Have you ever thought
And wondered how you'd die
I bet you never knew
Your life is all a lie

Running from the edge
You try and get away
But the truth of the thing
Is you must always stay
there are bubbles on your eyelashes
and air in your cheeks
your hair moves without you

i stare at you when you’re not looking
but you only want to read
what i write when it’s about you

i hold your hand under the water
i want to stay down here with you
but i can’t stop myself from floating

it makes me sad how much better
we are when we’re not ourselves

but i’ll do anything to be happy

— The End —
