Bloodwork

I held you close, I think I know
Maybe it's time that I let you go
Did I not show you
That it meant as much to me as it did to you
I swore I'd see this through.

I could write you
But would you even read it?
Not read the words but take them as truths no gimmicks
I could write you
But now I see things different
It's not the same between you and I
It's not the same.

Shatter the pieces of your past weakness
You need to fail faster to allow you to beat this
What a ritual, what a script to unfold
The story you were told.

Fingernails scratching words on the chalkboard
Gave me chills, hair stood up on my forearm
The white noise was so hard to pick through
But I was still there to catch you
Pick you up before your short fuse would get you.

You told me that I would see you again
Whether in this life or through a future kin
If I could have only one wish, I would ask to be stronger...stronger
Stronger.

When love finds its way
It finds its way back to you
When love finds its way
It finds its way back to you.

Now I see the picture
I've got this special feeling
Washes over like a perfect memory, but
I know to control my mind
Before it turns and controls me.

When love finds its way
It finds its way back to you
When love finds its way
It finds its way back to you.
