Was I meant to be loved, understood, will this break me, why will I always be there? |
I was just wondering how my art would get me through this life And if people like me Were ever meant to be understood I thought of your tune to my voice And it made me feel lucky Then when you tell me your stumble will cost That we’re taking a step backwards I’m not mad or afraid I just think of what I can do for you I tell you that through all the disappointments I will always be by your side And as I start to wonder why You break my train of thought You’re leaving Goodnight My thinking has taken to darker tones My thoughts are inconvenient Not worth hearing right now Don’t let my support drain the light from your smile Because it’s not easy It has to be silent Should I silently wait in my confusion To be the back that breaks your fall Silently give you my all All of my love I realize that that is the only reason That I’ll be here no matter what I’m hesitant to call it unconditional But I haven’t found a condition to weaken it It overwhelms me I’m yours for the taking And my joyous smiles I give to you But they come with a side of pain This creature that I am Doesn’t quite know bliss without the subsequent despair But I want to be the structure that helps keep you standing I don’t want to be the thorn in your side Somewhere deep down It seems I’ve been preparing For the day you realize you don’t need me anymore And you’ll be better off on your own For the day you thank me for my heart and hand it back I’ll let you go And I’ll watch you grow Into a beautiful healthy human being And never take back All the pieces of me I’ve invested in you Because that’s what unconditional love can do My brightest smile is made of you Still I wonder where my art will be Without your melody And if people like me Are really ever meant to be Understood For more than a song |
