Fighting


You were everything You still are But now I hold back tears trying to say the right words Because I know if I get them wrong I can’t take them back But you’re my best friend And I shouldn’t have to think before I say In fear of being judged I should be able to be myself But I don’t feel like myself Not anymore I feel even less like myself And we’ve both changed but its like you got Better While I got smaller And while you have everything I have nothing Its not bad for you to have what you want No that’s not what I’m saying Its that I should still have everything But I don’t have all of you I only have part of you While you have all of me
