Do You Know

I wish you knew how tiring this is
To plaster on a smile and pretend
I wish you knew that I'm trying
But no ones perfect

I wish you knew that sometimes I do not want to get up
That life can't be faced with me alone
I wish you knew it'd be better if you got up with me

I wish you knew how my hands hurt
They are dried and cracking from cleaning your wounds
I wish you knew that I have wounds that need to be cured too

I wish you knew I'm exhausted from your sadness
That your holes of despair are ugly
I wish you knew that those holes you dig, I'm falling in them

I wish you knew that I love you
The way I look at you I wouldn't look at anyone with the same spark
I wish you knew how to love me with that same fire

I wish you knew how sad I feel
To see you trapped in this cage of pain and terror
I wish you knew that only your fists can break the walls of that cage

I wish you knew how much I endure
How much I bleed and sweat and cry for you
I wish you knew that you're aren't the only one who has it hard

I wish you knew I would give you the Galaxy
That I'd reach through time and space only for you
I wish you knew how to find stars and moons

I wish you knew I do it for you
Every cut and bruise is there because of you
I wish you knew that it will say that way forever

Because I love you more than anyone
I love you more than the air I breathe or the earth I live on
I love you so much
I wish you knew that
