i wish i swiped left on you.
i don't know why i decided "fuck it," and slid my finger right
i don't know what possessed me, in the backseat of my best friends' car, but down the dark road you came that night
i wish i never hugged you goodbye
because that hug invited you to come by again
and coming by resulted in a night i'll never forget
bringing back years forgotten of my insomnia
subconsciously, you're all i'm thinking of
my nightly terrors, haven't gotten better
in fast they're worse, and it hurts to know the help i'm receiving hasn't given life more meaning
i just need to forget about you.
