Say you don't even remember me
My name didn't ring a bell
My name didn't carry the story of a sweet face you yearned to see every morning
Dear number two,
I will shatter your character if I'm sober
I will shatter the power dynamic you put me in
I know you enjoy my weakness and the golden light I put you under
I'm too scared of waking up though
The little minds within mine scream so loud I'm not really here
I will burn all that you love about me if I wake up...or if I stay asleep?
You know if you wanted to make things work then no part of me would have been discarded of
You know if you didn't want to run away because of fear we would have had the patience to make things clear
I know why I'm keeping you even though you're not here
I know why I won't let go
I see you in my dreams in both your shadow and light
you're all black and you're all white
You're all in then you're all gone
Keep me at arm's length then I'll show you how you can still lose me
Who's to stop me from hurting you if no one knows about me?
I love your pain, I want to see you cry, I wanna break you
and I know I'm doing the same to myself too
See, you wouldn't let me save you until I'm the only one around when you're broken
I'm the only one and I can have you
I will force empathy from you
look at me, please
I'm here, please see me
I know the answer is to choose one who wants me already, sees me already and for love he is ready
All that you are not.
But I can't let go
Can't risk another relapse
Can't fall into the darkness of fully pulling back
So pleasure and pain
I'm copying the girl you love
I'm the girl you drew
I'm not crazy
I just want to escape reality
Escaping and you're the best at it
Shame I already know you're not the man for me
I know you're nowhere close to the man I seek
You're an idiot, a coward
You're indecisive and broken
I just want to hurt you more
You want to dream of my body but you wanna shut the door to the rest of me
I'm not a body and not an essence you can steal
You don't have me
Your fantasies are not real
I wish I could take words out of your mouth the moment you see me
look at me like you love me
tell me "I'm sorry for staring, you're just so beautiful" because I am
Romance me the way I was always ready for
I've been learning to surrender for you baby
But I'm insecure when the rush is gone
It's embarrassing to love you
It's embarrassing to be vulnerable and show you how I change when I'm around you
loving someone who doesn't love me back feels like feeding myself to the wolves
I feel ashamed like you've caught me naked, wore a blank expression, and left me in silence
I ain't never leaving this room
I ain't never know how to be around you no more
They told me that you didn't hurt me
that I was already wounded before you saw me
But that only left me alone and empty
Yet again I am wrong! How come?!
Wrong once for chasing you and twice for getting addicted
I'm chaotic and I fail to see it
if you judge me that much then know that I see the way you look at her and you're just as full of shit
