Despondent

I'm comforted by your presence

And frustrated by your absence

And this is tragic, this role we have to play now.

To stay here, to leave here

Whispered constantly in my ears.

I'll blow up from exhaustion from never moving.

We'll stay forever this way

And our what could have been will linger on.

We'd be worth remembering.

I'm frustrated in your presence

And hollow in your absence

And I'm tired of acting out a role that I don't want.

I need this and I want this

Throbs constantly in my mind.

I'll blow up from surrendering to what we could have been.

So let's die here my love.

Just one kiss and we'll go out on top.

We'd be worth remembering, eternally this way.

You're beautiful and this is trivial

And it's building up inside.

If I blow up from exhaustion,

It will be from chasing you.

I could walk away and never think of you again,

But I am not that strong.
