I tried to keep you
Safe in this heart of mine.
I never realized
That it was more like
A trap...
It was more like
A pit.
It was deeper than that.
-
It was more like a cage.
You were steeped in that rage.
We lived on two different pages.
Coexisting on two different stages.
-
I couldn't safe you
From the fading lights.
The haunting dreams.
The sleepless night.
It wasn't for me
To make you mine.
There was never a moment
Not a perfect time...
-
I would have never left
Had you just given me a moment...
I could have lived there
In the dark,
If your loneliness,
You owned it...
I'll cherish even the little that you gave...
It was awfully
Brave
But you never could know it.
You never could show it.
A love for me,
You never could grow it...
-
I would have kept you safe
In these words of mine.
You could have been just fine.
In the mind
Of a lonely poet...
I'll always remember
That feeling, divine...
In the darkness you'd shine,
But I could never stow it...
How could you feed me
Such handsome lies?
I wandered beneath you
And I...
And I...
Had nothing but you
When I lost my mind...
I'd always believe you
And I...
And I...
-
Look back and It'll be heavy,
Yes it'll be numb
But this time, I'll be ready.
I just hope I can heal
I just hope you forget me.
I hope I can breathe
In the dark
It gets scary...
I would have kept you safe
In this heart of mine...
You didn't believe me
And I...
And I...
