Untitled Part 62

the notches in your spine

look like a ladder i can climb

crawl up into your headspace

i wanna stay on your mind

your fingers in my hair

don't wanna go anywhere

without you by my side

because that's just not fair

hold me like ill fall apart if you let go

because knowing me, i probably would

im clingy and needy, and a little bit greedy

for your love, probably more than i should

but i don't care at all

if i could i would stay on call

all night

ill listen to your breaths

match them with mine

a little bit of you and I should be just fine

your hand grasping mine

when we're apart i lose my mind

stuck inside the memories

i think about all the time

i sleep in your sweatshirts

to forget how much it hurts

when you're so many miles away

and sometimes it feels like it won't work

so when i see you again

hold me like ill fall apart if you let go

because knowing me, i probably would

im clingy and needy, and a little bit greedy

for your love, probably more than i should

but i don't care at all

if i could i would stay on call

all night

ill listen to your breaths

match them with mine

a little bit of you and I should be just fine

a little bit of tears falling on my papers

a whole lot of missing you

but you're the best thing that's happened to me

you're the reason i pull through

so hold me like ill fall apart if you let go

because knowing me, i probably would

im clingy and needy, and a little bit greedy

for your love, probably more than i should

but i don't care at all

if i could i would stay on call

all night

ill listen to your breaths

match them with mine

a little bit of you and I should be just fine
