Going
i’m climbing into bed tonight,
alone because i let you go.
my brain is moving fast,
my body’s going slow.
i’m escaping to my dreams,
my only chance of seeing you.
i’m going and not coming back,
i don’t know what else to do.
i’ve talked until i’m blue,
i’ve cried until i’m dry.
i tell you sincere truths,
you still think i lie.
i’m curling into a ball tonight,
arms wrapped around myself.
i’m going and dreaming of you,
i don’t want nobody else.
my fears keep me silent,
my desire for you makes me loud.
i would’ve begged you then,
but i was too damn proud.
i’m crawling into myself tonight,
settling for my dreams.
i’m going away, escaping,
before i start to scream
