it's not okay

  • I'm on fire And the day is feeling hopeless You'd see me burning but the burning's turning smokeless Soon I won't feel at all No Jesus christ. They never ever warn you it will hurt this bad. You can imagine it a thousand times over, do trial runs in your head, but still. It's not enough. I thought I'd be so strong but instead...I just disappeared. He believed me when I said I'd be okay. How come he always seems to catch me lying when i don't need him to? Just this once, couldn't he hav understood what i was about to do It's electric The neon heard inside your phone call The layered sadness and the madness it revolves Bringing down the walls where you found her No A phone call. Lots of static, background noise. Is that really all I'm worth, 7 minutes and 6 seconds of heartbreak and hell. Crush everything I thought i had. Break down everything so there's nothing left Well, I'm willing to break myself To shake this hell from everything I touch I'm willing to bleed for days more reds and grays So you don't hurt so much I know I fuck up too much. I know I'm not perfect. But god, I'm trying so fucking hard here. I'm willing to go that extra mile, to tear myself inside out, to fix this. It just kills me when you get like this, so disappointed. I'm so so sorry. But for you I'd bleed myself dry. You know that right? And now I'm static As your sky is turning purple and gray I'm learning that the further that I crawl The farther that I fall, is that ok? No Once you go, I just fall to nothing. I listen to this song, cry along to the melody. Where do I go from here? I've gotten so hurt by getting close to people. But I need a friend right now, any human contact. I look through the phone book but the only one i want to talk to is you. God, I just keep falling harder and faster. And you're in pieces As your world becomes a rainstorm You've got no shelter I'm a thousand miles away If you survive the day You say you're leaving I'm imagining again, when you'll realize that you miss me. Maybe someday it will tear you up inside, you'll see you're not the only victim. I know you were only trying to help, but sometimes...sometimes you were downright cruel. No one makes me cry like you do. And i think someday, once you learn how to love the people beneath all the flaws, you'll cry for me to. But knowing you, that will just scare you away even more You say you're leaving Well, I'm willing to break myself To shake this hell from everything I touch I'm willing to bleed for days more reds and grays So you don't hurt so much So you don't hurt so much Never again will we fire this gun No never again you're the only one No never again but you're already gone. Last time, I promised myself that this one would be the end. I should hate you, but i don't. Because even though I know I should be thinking of all those unkind words you said and how you just brush me off, all i seem to remember is how safe i feel when you hold me in your arms and tell me everythings okay. I know I'll never fall in love again, because it would remind me of you. And as they said, you're already gone. No use wishing for a dream I can't have I'm willing to break myself I'm not afraid I'm willing to break myself I'm not afraid I'm willing to break myself I'm not afraid I'm not afraid. I am strong. Much stronger than you give me credit for. Afterall, I did let you end it. I didn't beg. I wasn't angry. I said goodnight. If I can be that poised and perfect saying goodbye, i think I can take on anything. Well, I'm willing to break myself To shake this hell from everything I touch I'm willing to bleed for days more reds and grays So you don't hurt so much So much So much So much So much So much hurt, So much emotion. So much time. So much loss. So much experience. But most of all the word I come away with is fate. So much fate that played into this, brought us to where we are right now. If I could change it I would. But I can't do that. So I'm working on the future. And please, just please believe that I'm trying, As long as I have that gratification, I promise I'll be okay
