They say,
Let go of what you love.
But seeing them happy without you,
Breaks your heart.

They say,
Let go of what you love.
It it’s meant to be,
They will come back to you.

I say,
Why can’t I have the best of both worlds?
If true happiness comes after a heartbreak,
How would I know if it’s real?

I say,
What if I can’t let go,
Because the minute I do
It will never come back?

Is it worth holding on
To something without a promise?
It is worth wishful thinking
For something you know impossible?

The world is invalid,
Happiness is just temporary.
At the end of the day,
Everything goes.

If you played,
Then it’s a game.
Don’t you dare say,
It wasn’t fair play.

If you lied,
The truth is bare.
Don’t you dare say,
You were betrayed.

If you cared,
I wouldn’t be trash.
Don’t you dare say,
I will be okay.

If you dared,
Why did you hide?
Don’t you dare say,
It’s all for the best.

Thinking of you,
Is like throwing pebbles into a calm pond;
Flawed perfection.
Save me.

Wishing for you,
Is like a sky raining leprechaun coins;
It never lasts.
Save me.

Talking to you,
Is like yelling into a deep valley;
I only hear my own desperate calls.
Save me.

Falling for you,
Is like boarding an euthanasia coaster;
You know you’ll end up dying,
But you go for the thrill anyway.

Save me.

Little wings;
Flutter around,
Fly away to somewhere far.

Little wings;
Carelessly,
Scorched by an ignited spark.

Little wings;
Lost and lonely,
Living in a world of your own bars.

Little wings;
So swift,
Flew straight into my heart.

Would I,
Fall for the same mistakes;
That you told me you’d never,
commit again?

Would I,
Let my brain take over;
Or should my heart,
lead the way?

Would I,
Learn to forgive;
The things you said you would never do,
but you did it anyway?

Would I,
Promise to promise;
But change my mind,
like it was never made?
