You’re telling me that’s all it took
falling in, falling out and finally falling down
At least it’s better than falling again

lifeless motions across his face
visions of a face that I hold close
a heart that opens up its doors

it’s just because I’m tired
of this life of mine tonight
he’s been hurt too much is what I think
but a part of me knows it’s not true

I’m so broken and convinced that
he’s breaking too
Sometimes you wonder if he will leave me too

and I’m telling you to keep wondering
but let me tell you something
the things we take for granted mean the most to us

and if not this time, then next, he will reassure me with the truth
the blindness you have tried to summon upon me will run away in fear
because the truth is, I don’t want you to go
but his presence matters more

you can bring back the pain from the past
and test my strength when you seek
even if I lose to you again,
I wouldn’t leave without the lessons that the teach
shackle me down when you’re bored,
but oh mind of mine, you and I are chained for life
