Reaching For You

it’s all the things you ever knew

crushing me and killing you

again

i see things like they end

i used to play pretend

that I

can see it in your eyes

lying half the time

you’re everything I am

I’ll wait right here

under the branch

where we hung

our legs

from our knees

all summer

when we fell

it’s everything i ever felt

winning cards are never dealt to me

see me for the worst

i’d keep you if i could

it’s all you know

now on

all the things i’ve said

sound better in my

head

than out loud

all i think

is a curse
