Let me be someone else for a time

Pretend I'm fine, my scars are from another life

You lighten my smiles, brighten my nights so to speak

The cravings were real, but we know that I cannot feel

 

Right?

​

You lied to me, said I'd set you free

Yet here you are broken

You gave to me everything that I need

So why do I feel so alone?

 

I guess I'll let you go

 

I needed love, I guess I settled for a while

Be there for me, shelter me from my realities

But I knew deep, that I'm not the pieces that you need

Come struggle with me, let's try and live out this fallacy

 

My love wasn't true, said I'd be there for you

I'm sorry you weren't enough

Please don't cry, I promise you will find

Someone, anyone better than me

 

It'll be easy

 

I think of you, I swear that I do

I'll hope you're better off always

It's clear to me that it wasn't meant to be

We both fucked up here and there

 

I used to care
