Don't Make Me

Breathing in fire

Spit it back

Bullets

Rolling right off my back

You keep me

Grounded

Whatever is left

You keep it

Inside me

When everything falls away

Down around me

You keep me

You keep me

Then take it

Because others give it away

You take it

Because

You've never made me beg for it

You walk beside me

Not behind or in front of me

You see

The ugly

The pretty 

Every piece

That holds me

That makes me

You love

You keep me

You keep me

If you don't want it

Can't take it

Then leave it

If you let me go

I don't want to know

Don't make me

Don't make me miss you

After knowing you

What it's like

To love you

Love me

Don't make me

See

What I can't unsee

If you're going to take me this far

Don't leave me here

Stranded in the dark

Alone

Now that I know

Don't make me forget

What home

Feels and tastes like

If you can't handle it

Then leave it

But not before

You kill it

Because 

I can't live without it
