lyrics

you are not a villain in a song
you're a man to whom i'd hoped i could belong
but if all we are is skin stretched over bone
i am my own

swore i saw the glimmer of a man
who could tolerate if not quite understand
i am not some burden that you opted not to bear
'cause you were scared

remember when i told you i could die
that i was grasping for a reason to survive?
you took the words and crushed them, you always loved to steal
never asked me how i feel
there was no, "how you feeling?"

i still taste the sweetness of your kiss
though my tongue spits bitter after all of this
i miss the way it feels not to crumble but to soar
when my eyes meet yours

i am my own
i'm not made of stone
and goddamn i feel my pain through skin and bone
where'd your heart and spine go, and don't it get too cold
on your own?
