I know how it feels to have my heart broken every time there’s a knock on the door
And it’s for me
When you crawl into bed to sleep next to me
When you have already slept in her

I know how it feels to say goodbye knowing you’ll be right back
Upon my own request
To have you chase me endlessly
Wrapped around my little finger

I know how it feels to fall in love with every minute with you
To fall in love with the way the sparkle in your eye fades
When you find yourself in a situation you don’t like
And never once was it my own fault

I know how it feels to hear the little earthquakes when I walk
Step by step another village of my confidence destroyed
Living by the standards that you have set for me
In my own mind.

I know how it feels to watch you want to step off the ledge
And never once did I try to convince you to come back
Because you are strong enough to save yourself
And you know that’s what I’m trying to teach you
To never rely on someone else
The way I rely on you.
