Breathe Straight
Forgive me if I seem eager
But I haven't felt a light for so long.
My eyes have grown heavy from tears,
I lost a good wall to lean on.
And you are just like me.
So now I know I'm not alone.
Without you I can't believe,
That tiny pieces can ever be sewn.
Pull me away from the pain
And tell me the words to help my stand.
My feet are tired, my heart is drained.
I crave your warmth in hand.
I can't remember how to breathe straight,
Not when you come so near.
A swift embrace of face to face,
A moment I always hold dear.
I want to pretend that you love me,
But I only want to pretend.
What is it that everyone else can see?
I don't have much left to defend.
