Build - 2020

 Build

Build me Up tear me down

I try to scream but I can’t make a sound

My throats so dry I can’t breathe

Why the fuck did I decide to leave

I have to fight to pretend everyday

That all I wanted to do was stay

I never wanted to walk away

 

“ remember if I push you away or anything happens that I love you “

 

In my head those words have stuck

Which is why I never gave a fuck

That from the start

We’ve mostly been apart

All that ever mattered is you had my heart ❤️

 

Now the years have gone by

I still try not to cry

I fight back tears every day

Of all the words I wish I had the guts to say

 

Your name rips from my lips 👄

As my body shakes in Ecstasy
