Not long ago now but it feels like forever sometimes
I like to think of you at night and rewind
To the times before I left
When we were so close but far, scared and young
Every breath I took was just too much for me
It became fire in my lungs
But you felt like one of kind, the kind that doesn't hurt me
Even when you did, it made me wish I could've talked to you
Because you would have understood it
But I knew I couldn'tThe type that stays when you need them too
And the type to be free
The kind of type I think I need
You are and always will be
The only trouble I see is me
And I'm always getting in my way
I tend to be afraid to be okay
But I ᴡɪʟʟ always stay
I ᴘʀᴏᴍɪsᴇ I won't go away
Or say to you someday
