Loving You
It hurts more
Not to feel anything
It cuts deeper
When I don't chase after you
I remember
I recall
It seems forever ago
When you and I
Were so in love
But it's just me
Falling in the wrong direction
As you struggle
To keep a hold on me
These days
My mind is closed
Shutting you out
And as I grow colder
You fight harder
I'm sure by now
Your fists are raw and bloody
You fight so hard
And all I want sometimes
Is to watch you leave
You soothe me
In ways no one else can
Even after all this time
It's nice to be yours
And know you're mine
But after all this time
Sometimes I look back at you
And cry
I'll leave
My heart by the bed side
On the nightstand
And hope someday
When you're not angry
You'll understand
You'll finally see
Goodbye had nothing to do with you
And everything to do with me
One day
When it doesn't hurt so much
When you can't remember
My touch
And how I felt
Wrapped around you
One day
When it doesn't hurt so much
But until then
Right now
Wrap your arms tighter around me
Keep me together
From falling away
Whether it's coming sooner or later
Or never
Hold on to me
As if
You'll never see me again
Because one day
When I can't take it
When the lies come undone
I want you to remember me
Loving you
