a tender glimpse beneath the surface
â i'll always protect you. â
â i never meant to get this close, but now that i have i can't let you go. â
â i live for the moments when you look at me. the rest of the time i'm just existing. â
â i don't like how you make me feel. but i like not being around you even less. â
â i wish you wouldn't look at me like that. when you look at me like that i...it makes me wanna do things i shouldn't â
â there's no line i wouldn't cross for you. don't you realize that? â
â i did this for you. no one else. â
â i don't like it, but i'll do it for you. â
â i wonder how much of myself i'll have to give to youâhow much i have to lay bareâbefore you realize how much you're taking. â
â i'm not trying to fix you. i'm just trying to be your friend. â
â i'm not um, real good at thank yous. or sorry's. but if you ever need me, i'm there. i owe you one. â
â i've seen you at your worst and i'm still standing here. â
â you've seen me at my worst but you're still here... â
â you can be mad at me, i can take it. i'd rather you be angry than shut me out. â
â i'm not angry, i'm just scared. â
â i know you love me, but do you like me? â
â do you think i'm a good person? â
â do you think i care for you so little that betraying me would make a difference? of course i'm helping you. â
â tell me what i can do to show you how i love you. i will give you anything you ask for. â
â you don't have to keep apologizing. just be here. day in and day out and prove that you're gonna keep showing up. that's all you have to do. â
â i only sleep well when you're next to me. â
â i don't want an apology i just want to understand. â
â i could actually use a hug right now. â
â i want everyone else to go away, but you can stay. â
â i actually do care what you think about. you're probably one of the only people whose opinion matters to me. â
â you always seem to know what i need. â
â you always seem to know just what i need to hear. â
â i want you to call me when you need someone. i want to be here for you. â
â you're the one i wanna call when i need someone. â
â seems like i always want you around when everything feels all fucked up. guess that means something. â
