the truth is i want you
but it hurts to want you
it hurts to need you
so i tell myself to try and stop
i tell myself to distance
but it hurts just as much
the truth is i don't know how to stop hurting
i hate this part of myself
the part that craves you
the part that's desperate for you
i despise it
i want to kill it
it'll never get enough of you
but i've had enough of this
i'm tired of feeling like this
like the air's thinner without you
like life is duller without you
like time with you is the best way to spend it
i just want to stop feeling this way
