how did we become like this?
perhaps it's your nature
tendencies towards loneliness
how you cling to friendship
or perhaps it's my suffering
how this broken heart yearns
for something to latch onto
oh, how broken we are
maybe this is our downfall;
i'll be selfish, even callous
put you above all else
what have i become?
place your hand over my heart
promise me we'll never part;
can you hear my pulse
how my blood sings
i need you, only you
i can't ever lose you
do you feel it too?
tell me what you would do
i've seen you lie
to keep me safe
are you as desperate as me?
are you as codependent as me?
i fear this coming to an end;
fear that my heart will never mend
you are broken, i am sick—
