You Know Deep Down We Should Have Never Broken Up
If you had let me, I would have fought; I would have sent my heart to war for you, I would have never backed down
If you had let me, I would have crawled inside your heart and cherished everything you thought I would have hated.
If you had let me, I would have given you every piece of my patchwork soul; I would have let you create art from my bones, from my words, from my fire.
If you had let me, I would have kissed you deeply in public places; I would have painted cities with our memories, I would have built us our own world.
If you had let me, I would have worked until the laughter met your eyes; I would have dug through the soil of you until spring finally found its way into the darkest corners of your mind.
If you had let me, I would have fought; I would have sent my heart to war for you, I would have never backed down.
If you had let me, I would have loved you. If you had let me, you would now feel whole instead of lost.
