I am looking
at the stars tonight
thinking about you
How you used to tell me
about these stars on the sky
how
they were a map
full of souls
souls that had died
before they lived
and
I can't help but wonder
if I am going to be
one of them
I don't want to think that
That I died for nothing
but maybe I could
die to shine
Cause people always
has so much to say
when you are
no longer
there
- I want to hear those words -
- I wanna feel loved again -
- I screwed it up when I let you go -
- I pushed you away to let you live -
- I couldn't keep having you in a cage -
"but only god knows
how much I miss you"
and maybe
that is love
letting go of
people you need
cause you know
it is for their best
even though
it might not be
for your best
"sometimes you just have to unravel pain
to see someone else that you love smile"
but why can't I see it on your smile?
was it a mistake to let you go?
wasn't that what you needed?
