Breakdown

I'm on a breakdown

I'm afraid of your eyes, I'm afraid of your kisses

All the things that used to make me shine

Now bring me to pieces

Feels like my heart

Is clenched with an iron fist

I'm afraid of my own darkness

And I can't help but stare right into it

But if, somehow, you don't leave me

I'll get myself much better, believe me

I have been running forever

Now what if I can just stay with you, stay?

I'm on a breakdown

I drag myself in loops

Round and round through the dark side

While I come to you like a wounded, old stray dog

To scratch and bleed at your bedside

My heart

Is clenched in a fist

My own fist

But if, somehow, you don't leave me

I'll get myself much better, believe me

I have been running forever

Now what if I can just stay with you, stay?

What if we make it together

And let it cut in deeper and braver?

I have been running forever

The demon never sleeps, but I'm still hanging in here

And as my inside's crushed

Somehow. I still get to make you laugh

You shine and I, I pray

To never hurt you

But I don't know

If I'm your shelter or I'm a storm

If I'm your shelter or I'm a storm

This room is our loving, broken home

But if, somehow, you don't leave me

I'll get myself much better, believe me

I have been running forever

Now what if I can just stay with you, stay?

What if we make it together

And let it cut in deeper and braver?

I have been running forever

The demon never sleeps, but I'm still hanging in here

I have been running forever
