You could watch me walk
Across this world
Escape this place
My mind, unfurled
A million miles
Take every plane
Show a thousand smiles
Take a hundred trains
To free myself
From one little thought
That its you I couldn’t help
It’s you, and it rots
In my mind
In my heart
It stays and it sways
I’ll be fine for weeks
Months
Years even
Then one day
It comes back to me
In a split second
And I can’t control
What my deep mind beckons
That I wasn’t enough
To put the pipe down
Put the needle away
You don’t need to drown
Cause I was there
When your memory was not
I remember everything
And I wish I could not
See you turn into everything
I didn’t want you to be
See you turn into everything
You knew you would be
So in the end
I was the fool
The misguided girl
With one broken rule
That love is not enough to save us.
