Felt a little distanced today
From my heart
Like I could step back
And see what I want
(-)
And truthfully I didn’t want her either
I poured my whole heart into her
Before
And hit that wall that I know
Isn’t going anywhere
Anymore
It still pulls on little strings
But then I think of all the things
I actually want
She’ll never give
And I don’t want them from her anymore
Bittersweet but I’ve been sure
So I put my heart back into myself
(-)
And you came and coaxed it away
Like no one else
But I know you didn’t mean to
I can’t help that feeling of being brand new
That hits me every day
Everything you say
You fucking amaze me
You deserve someone who knows you’re amazing
But I know that can’t be me
I’m making peace with it day by day
Every moment takes me deeper
But I just flow with it now
I know this love is a keeper
And you keep putting your own self down
Idk how to reconcile the light that you are
With the love you choose that dims you
But I’ll figure it out
Cuz I have to
That’s the part that hurts
Seeing your worth
Grows more every minute
Watching your whole life stifling it
But it’s what you choose
Have to respect it
But I’ll never like it
It’ll never not break my heart
But I’ve got me now
And you’ve got me anyhow
When you want me around
And I’ll still send you love even
when you don’t
Hoping you will love yourself.
