i'm just a lingering paranoia
dwelling in your mind
no, i am not your worst nightmare,
i am just a dream
a dream you cannot catch
with your bare hands
i'd fade away just like dust
perish like fantasy
it would be best
if you never see me again
your heart's been broken
with a half-hearted smile
soulless eyes make
my heart beat helplessly
especially when it's yours to begin with
i built my own cage
while you were willing to free me
however, i was hesitant
and didn't let you in
you told me endless
that you would not lead me to my demise,
when you know deep down
you already did
why can't i tell you that i'm worried about you-
your future, dreams
and aspirations
mean a lot to me
why would you fall
for someone
as simple as me?
well, let your heart decide
because i'm willing to wait...
darling.
