When you’d say
That you needed more from me
Your words just didn’t stick
Inside my brain
When you’d say
That you couldn’t stay and be
The remedy to the sickness
I became
I felt
The world
Slip out from under me
As all my
Fears and doubts
Suddenly were real
Until you finally said
Goodbye
And I watched you walk away
I stranded myself in the darkest of places
You were the candle to light up my way
But I
Couldn’t show you the same
Or let my problems fade
Into the background of the soundtrack
Of our days
When everything was breaking
And I could feel you slipping
And I fell back into remission
I wanted to beg you to stay
But I left works unspoken
I couldn’t find the moments
To ask you who you needed me to be
Goodbye
And I watched you walk away
I stranded myself in the darkest of places
You were the candle to light up my way
But I
Couldn’t show you the same
Or let my problems fade
Into the background of the soundtrack
Of our days
How did l let us get so far
Blindly slowly breaking your heart
Placing my own safety over yours
How did I let us go backwards
Losing traction with every word
Until finally I had no strength to change
Goodbye
And I watched you walk away
I stranded myself in the darkest of places
You were the candle to light up my way
But I
Couldn’t show you the same
Or let my problems fade
Into the background of the soundtrack
Of our days
I’ll hold the bouquet
Of peonies
And hand them off to you
And watch you walk away
