Holding onto ropes of eternity
Looking back at the way life used to burden me
Carve three lines into my hand, mind deserting thee
Know I still find myself returning to insanity

Lying here, I see that things weren’t that meant to be
In reality, my world didn’t turn easily
Hiding under privilege doesn’t change what the past meant to me
No apologies enforce all the fragilities

Both my palms are bleeding, cut and bruised
From not letting go of you
My heart aches with pain from just forgetting you
Leaving you to the world that ignored you

Times have changed some blood has dried
But the scars run deep and true
Dead like all the hopes from broken dreams
 a few lifeless shapes of you
I can’t help but,     

I should have saved you
Know I should have tried to
Not like I knew how to
Just know that I missed you

I should have saved you 
Know I should have tried to 
Not like I knew how to 
Just know that I missed you
