Can I protect you from myself?
Can I make it out?
It is crippling
It is beautiful
Is there love lost when I've lost it all
Will you see me for who I am
Or judge me for who I was
Can I protect you? From this cardboard world.
We're all slightly dead
We're all slightly dead
I was supposed to lead
I looked up to you
Have I let you down?
Have I made you proud?
Show me how cause I can't look back
I've come undone and I need some rest
Another page of this worthless text
Keep me safe it is you and I
If it gets too close I will take its life
There's a martyr in us all
Brace yourself for the fall
I would take their f*cking life
Just to watch them die
Would you laugh with me?
It's unbearable even to think
How I'd conjure the courage
Without you remaining so honest to me
I know that.
I know I'm completely incomplete
Hold me close as I fail you
