faded

running on empty

held your heart in contempt

he wouldn't go

​

seething

shivering anger

never noticed the danger

you now know

​

you don't need to set me free

and I don't need your olive tree

I just wanna do some good

before my bones give up on me

​

so we compare our collections

of our scars and addictions

hearts at war

​

find our struggle is easing

swim though sodden and freezing

back to shore

​

and I am treading water

and you are heading northward

so hold me up

I'll bring you home
