A sadness I had

created for myself

that killed my

heart in the end,

was I never had you

to have lost you

and I can't blame you

for my pretend

• Reverse •

If only I had erased my thoughts
before I could think,

and suffocated myself
before I could sink

If only I had undone my knots
before I was twisted,

and ended my existence
before I existed

• Trade •

I would dry your eyes if it
meant drowning in your tears

I would calm your demons if it
meant falling with your fears

I would fight your struggles if it
meant suffering your strife

I would trade your death if it
meant giving you my life

• Purity •

The innocence in your
nature robbed you
of all that you ever had

Your pure intentions
always left you lost
and misunderstood

You used to be a good
person afraid of all
that was deemed bad

But now you’re a bad
person afraid of all
that was deemed good

• In-Between •

If only there could have been
some type of an in-between
That could take me for awhile
to a world that I've never seen

It's not that I want to come
It's just I don't want to go
It's not that I want a high
It's just I don't want a low

I don't want myself without
But I don't want myself within
I don't want to commit to good
But I don't want to commit to sin

It's not that I want to win
It's just I don't want to lose
It's not that I want a mystery
It's just I don't want the clues

I don't want to say hello
But I don't want to say goodbye
I don't want myself to live
But I don't want myself to die

If only there could have been
some type of an in-between
That could take me for awhile
to a world that I've never seen
