i never had to lose all that i loved,
i’ve kept it all locked in a drawer,
i’ll never know what it is to hurt like that,
i’ve never hurt like that before,
you come with more baggage than you’re worth,
the victim in your own eyes,
you never got what you wanted,
i’ve never seen with your eyes,
the lines you crossed,
were all grey and none black,
what about the lines i crossed,
and all you gave back,
i can’t pity you,
i don’t know what it is to feel,
i’ll watch you lose it, fall to pieces,
i can’t know it’s for real,
when i hear you sometimes,
crying through your wall,
you’ll pound and shout, scream for numbness,
and i’ll ignore it all,
i’ve never had to lose before,
i’ve never had a reason to scream,
i can’t know the reasons that you do,
i can only dream.
so, climb now into my drawer,
lock yourself in, lose the key,
i’ve never lost anything before,
and now i won’t lose me.
