If You Go Down, We Can Go Down Together.

by Not Bulletproof   Dec 23, 2006


"Forgive...sounds good.
Forget...I'm not sure I could.
They say time heals everything,
but I'm still waiting."

Well, I'd cry,
but what's the point?
I washed away my feelings in the shower,
and I abandoned all my power.
I'm down to one more hour
and I don't want to make it anymore.

I want to throw my hands up and walk away,
but what good would that do us today?
It's either we both go, or we both stay,
any other suggestions just aren't plausible.

I never wanted to hurt you,
it's true.
Whether you believe me or not,
is your choice,
and I'm just saying,
with my own voice
(for once)
that you'll never lose me completely.
Just a part of me.

I'm going to sit down and hold you;
rub your back while you cry.
You can tell me how much you hate me,
and you can wish that I'd die,
but I'll always come back for more.

I thought about crying again;
I thought about cutting like way back then,
but I know that you made me something better than that;
so you hold me back
subconsciously.
I'll never go back to being the old me,
and that's something I can thank you for.

I washed away the feelings of hatred,
and I've decided not to care,
(to some extent)
but I want you to know that I'll be there,
whenever and wherever,
to help you through the pain you can't bear;
the pain that I put there.
