I.
There's no easy way to say
that I am broken in pieces
and they're trapped
somewhere far inside me
I can't feel anything except
for the hunger but
at least I am safe

II.
If it's over don't
tell me, If you don't
love me don't tell me
Let me not take the hint
Let me pretend someone
cares for just a second
If it's over just leave
me don't leave me trapped
in a fantasy, I'd rather
die than live a f*cking lie

III.
I'm not enough and I know
and I'm sorry that
sometimes I don't want to
keep breathing I'm not enough
and you should run as far
away from me as you
can but I'll never tell you
that because I need you and I'd
give you anything just to make
sure you'll stay, You're the
realest person I've met in
a long time and I think you
are made of clay and sweat
You are something too anciently
beautiful for me to touch
I need to hug you I need you
to hold me seep into me
remind me how to be alive
and you need to run
as far away
as you can
