Songs I Write | V

Delivered

Watching all my texts from read to left delivered
Hoping one day you'll wake up just to respond
Loving you was my biggest breakdown and my highest fever
Throwing all my love away just for an hour to be alone

I always thought it would be easier to walk away
I thought you'd be here after what you'd say
I fought the world for you, the world for you is clear now, thanks to me
And all my effort and all my pain
Every tear I cried, deep in your drain
I always thought it would be easier, easier

Hearing those words leave your lips and stain
"I don't want you, don't need you, don't care if you're hurting, hurt on your own"
Fearing for the worst, I scramble to collect any energy to make you stay 'cause you're
Throwing all my love away just for an hour to be alone

I always thought it would be easier to walk away
I thought you'd be here after what you'd say
I fought the world for you, the world for you is clear now, thanks to me
And all my effort and all my pain
Every tear I cried, deep in your drain
I always thought it would be easier, easier

I'll be honest, I don't wanna walk in the halls without you by my side
I don't wanna go to sleep without hearing you breathe and watching you close your eyes for the night
I'll be truthful, I got too used to a life where the space next to me was always occupied
You've been the biggest lie

Watching all my texts from read to left delivered
I always thought it would be easier to walk away
Hearing those words leave your lips and stain
I always thought it would be easier, easier than to stay

I'll be honest, I don't wanna walk in the halls without you by my side
I don't wanna go to sleep without hearing you breathe and watching you close your eyes for the night
I'll be truthful, I got too used to a life where the space next to me was always occupied

But what can I do? You've left, and there's nowhere to hide
The space next to me is empty if you change your mind
