too bad
Too bad I’m not enough
Too bad I’m going to fuck it up
Too bad I won’t let you try
To scratch away my insecurities
And let you touch my golden heart
It’s not on you it’s on me
We’re over before we started
I ended it too early
You wanted to nurture me
But I wanted to curl up
I wasn’t poison but I made you believe touching me was
Loving me was the potion
I stopped everything in motion
We both felt the whiplash
My necks fucked up
From all the looking back
I’m far from good
But I’m learning, and understanding, all the ways I treated you
Were the ways I treated myself
It’s fucked up I know but
You don’t go for a diagnosis with no symptoms
And when I lost you, I knew I had to go
Where hearts ache, tides turn, and bridges are burnt
I saw myself burning in the water
It was cold but it had to be done
I had to save myself
