We're forehead to little forehead, eyes locked in loving embrace, but that's not on my mind
You're a strong man
The kind that bends metal in his palms
You've turned my heart into ash and it's sinking in a way I can only feel in my stomach
It's not like you've taken anything from me
It's what you've given me
What I didn't ask for
What I didn't deserve
I scrub and scrub until my finger tips sting
Nothing is ever clean enough
I analyze every possible disaster
Waking nightmares and horror shows that take place between blinks
Can't close my eyes for fear of what I will see
When did this anxiety become a part of me?
I never knew why I screamed in pain on the floor
Straining every muscle
Tense and afraid
There is no internal battle
There is no dark cloud
Just you and me, forehead to forehead, a memory
