Better
If I had a better mind
I could bend the little travesties.
Make amends with the Gods of everything
Gravity wouldn't feel so damn heavy
and I could finally say something happy
Not melodramatic conversation pieces
A real hopeful and respectful sentencing
where I didn't have to fake my conviction
just to make you smile
and watch you walk away with a part of me
I don't want to learn another lesson
I don't want to see the worse side of my depression
Because sometimes the medication is too much to take
remember when you said we were different
you pulled my heart in one direction for so long
finally feeling human for the moment
taking my boring existence through a whirlwind
when you let it go to take a breath
it was left with creases and was never the same
You became bored with chaos and wanted to become destruction
a struggle to take me down with you and it broke me into pieces
my peace of mind for a corner in your heart
I see where I've gone wrong but why do I still want to follow
I could bend the little travesties.
Make amends with the Gods of everything
Gravity wouldn't feel so damn heavy
and I could finally say something happy
Not melodramatic conversation pieces
A real hopeful and respectful sentencing
where I didn't have to fake my conviction
