Theme: Dependence
Writing absolutely nothing would still make sense
As my desire for her touch grew, I forgot how to breathe
A delusional individual who is once again lonely
Fell into despair, longing for her, and her only
Is it worse that I'm not bruised or bleeding?
I'm physically okay, I'm just barely breathing
I selfishly hoped the pain you gave me might be love
You are everything I want, but I don't deserve your "yes"
I know full well what I'm doing isn't healthy
Yet, I still chose to love you, so please tell me
Is waiting for you merely stupid? I'm driving myself to madness
Like holding your hand, I'm still holding on to that promise
The shackles that hold me are wide open, but I refuse to leave
These feelings are foolish, but they refuse to dissipate
Back then, all I cared about was her and ways to amuse her
Now, I'm only a soul who is his own mind's abuser
Her very presence gives me warmth and comfort
Yet every ounce of pain she's inflicted, it really hurt
To think that my only dream was also my poison
Like an addiction, in life and death, you are my very reason
