As I tear myself down
To pieces and shreds
You stitch me up with your needle and thread
With each stitch I can't help but fall even more
But my love for you is different than any before
It swallows me whole and shakes me deep to my core
It's all I could ever hope for
I want nothing but the best for you as well
And for that I know it's not myself
You deserve someone who treats you right
Not someone who calls out for you at night
Someone who is down for a fight
Not little ole me who always chooses flight
Someone who will help you build a home
Not someone who you have to remold
You deserve only the best
Not any less
Which is far from me... for I am a mess
Just a small little pest
a pest who will always and forever
Only wish you the best
