This Is How You Rewrote Yourself - Dear You

I’ve been pulled under

I’m fighting back to keep my head above the fray

I can’t pick myself up off of the floor

Nothing that I say will turn into the hand that helps me on my feet

I’m caught again between the fire and the wall you pushed on me

Laying the brick for the devil and his advocate

I hovered around for a little while

And I can tell that only simple people feel safe at night

When they’re all alone and feeling sorry

I was confused and unclear

Finally is punched me right through my chest

It hit so hard it split my head in half

And mutiny between my thoughts and my gut finally waged their war

Right now I’m falling apart

I wish someone would have told to cherish what I didn’t know I could lose when

I was so young

If you’re moving on, then take me along

Cause I can’t stand the thought of growing older alone
