Pillars

When you said forever, you drove a hard bargain

But this grip is getting looser everyday

Like a child fighting to stay awake

Now it seems that all that's left

Are you and me and my insecurities

And I'm afraid there's only room for two of us

But I wonder if you even have a clue

Just how much this is killing me

For now I'll learn to retrace my steps

(And walk down yours for the last time)

All you had to say was "it's over"

And it's alright, and we could carry on

I swear I never meant for this

But so it is, and so it goes

And I swear I never meant for this

But sometimes you have to pull up roots

To make room for new ones to grow

But I wonder if you even have a clue

Just how much this is killing me

For now I'll learn to retrace my steps

(And walk down yours for the last time)

We're just shards of a smashed bottle

Lost with the words unspoken

Shimmering bright but always hollow

We pretend we're something more than just broken

But we're nothing more

We're just broken

Do you hear me?

We're just broken
