I think all my life I have been running away from pain and I felt like I should run away from you because of the pain I caused.
Should I’ve been a little problem solving oriented, I would have saved us from falling apart.
Maybe if I did not seek external validation, I would have saved us.
You were my happiness and my pride;
Happiness I should’ve fought for,
Happiness I lost in a blink of an eye.
Maybe one day you will realise my love instead of my wrong.
I am just human after all;
I am flawed like all under the sun but maybe I just needed some grace.
You showed me that but it slipped right through my fingers.
It’s like watering a seed and waiting for it to blossom.
But a strong wind and storm comes and weathers it away.
I mean I do have demons from my past;
We all do, but I just needed a little grace.
