The world
Has battered me
Over a hundred times
And I
Don't want to
Be broken anymore
Caught me in your rearview side
Crying out anxiety and surprise
When finally someone stops in the rain
The answered texts got me screaming your name
Not used to this kind of trust before
Biting my lip in the shadow of the mirror
I've
Lost my mind
In the hurricane
And I
Am afraid
Of what happens next
You make me feel, make me feel
The world through a whole new look
You make me see, make me see
This calming echo of the twisted words inside
Sometimes I wonder if you see
The person that I am, that I want, underneath
Yet you still answer my every call
Are you just someone who can't see me fall?
Or do you just want me to feel whole inside?
Are we just happening to be on the ride?
Cuz I've seemed to feel better
After this time in recovery
And I've seemed to see better
When you've stopped me in your rearview
