Darling, why do you cry?
You seem so afraid of goodbye
Truth be told, my mind's been gone a long, long time,
But I confess, what's left of me should apologize.
I wonder where to find the line
between a cry for help and chain that binds
My tale's been told a thousand times and none at all
But I digress, this mess, don't worry, I'll be fine,
Fine, I'm fine, I'm fine, just leave, Oh please, I swear by God,
If you don't walk out that door I swear I'll hurt you more,
Don't you dare tell me I'm not okay, you don't say,
it's scaring me, seeing the cracks creep
It's funny, how the water seems so bright
and how the drops of air reflect the sky
The world, it seems so peaceful from the other side,
But dear, don't fear, you're free, and sadly, so am I.
