letting go

fading everything to black and blue
you look a lot like you'd
shatter in the blink of an eye
but you keep sailing right on through
every time you say you're learning
you just look a lot like me
pale under the blistering sky
white and read black and blue

you've been waiting a long time
you've been waiting a long time
to fall down on your knees
cut your hands
cut yourself until you bleed
but fall asleep next to me

wait for everyone to go away
and in a dimly lit
room where you got nothing to hide
say your goodbyes
tell yourself we'll read
a note that says
"i'm sorry everyone.
i'm tired of feeling nothing. goodbye."

wash your face
dry your eyes

cause you've been waiting a long time
you've been waiting a long, long time
to fall down on your knees
cut your hands
cut yourself until you bleed
but fall asleep next to me

and have a dream i'm falling down
on my face
scrape my knees
i scrape my hand until they bleed
cause you're fast asleep next to me
