while you were out building other worlds, where was i?
          	where's that man who'd throw blankets over my barbed wire?
          	i made you my temple, my mural, my sky.
          	now i'm begging for footnotes in the story of your life.
          	drawing hearts in the byline,
          	always taking up too much space or time.
          	you assume, i'm fine but what would do if i break free and leave us in ruins?
          	took this dagger in me and removed it? 
          	gain the weight of you then lose it.
          	believe me i could do it.

from sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes 
          i gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this
          i hosted parties and starved my body
          like i'd be saved by a perfect kiss
          the jokes weren't funny, i took the money
          my friends from home don't know what to say
          i looked around in a blood-soaked gown 
          and i saw something they can't take away 
          cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned
          everything you lose is a step you take
          so make the friendship bracelets 
          take the moment and taste it 
          you've got no reason to be afraid 
          you're on your own, kid
          yeah, you can face this 
          you've always have been...
