Dear...

I’ll always treasure the naivety Of the past we’ve shared Our bodies grew much faster than our minds But together we got good at stopping time My teen angst drove me to hurt myself And I made u watch Oh the pain I must have caused But by staying around u saved my life (saved my life) We were never meant to be lovers Just fellow late bloomers Who blossomed the part (2x) Watching my parents made me look for something destructive And there u were With all the characteristics of my mom Familiarity of home The geographic gap let to forced adulthood And your rage exposed I’m glad we left things when we did I doubt I’d survive another bloody moan We were never meant to be lovers We just mirrored each other’s self destructiveness (self destructiveness) The spotlight burned in the room when we were together And we played our parts And I wore an imaginary tv screen So u never got to touch my heart We were never meant to be lovers Our egos fed of each other And died overweight 2x I thought I’d seen it all when u first walked in But u shut me up And challenged every wrong perception I’ve had of myself And u haven’t ever stopped
