I’ve only known this girl for a few weeks but already I find myself
falling
The crazy think is, I’m still falling
Weeks even months have passed
And I still find myself falling
Things I learn about her
Are like shovels digging the canyon falling deeper and deeper
Still falling
I wonder when I’ll reach the bottom
if I’ll be able to climb back up
Love this strong can’t be healthy
But what I find disturbing is that when I look
around the bottom of this pit
It’s cold
And lonely
I don’t see you down here with me
I’ve fallin’
but you’re still standing
I look up and I see you standing on top of
the canyon with somebody else
After that sight it begins to rain
Raining so hard it creates a river of sadness
Sadness that I’m drowning in
Either I learn to swim
Or this sadness will be the death of me
I don’t want to drown so
I hold my breath
And hold my thoughts
Hold my tongue
Because even though my heart is broken
I would rather remain in silence
Than to break down in front of you and tell you how hurt I feel
It’s only a waste of time
You don’t care
So, I don’t expect you to throw me a life jacket
You would much rather watch me drown
