Chelsea King - hiraeth

And if I had the cure
I'd save you first
I'd call you my savior
Cause you like the spotlight more than I do
Drink up and fall asleep
I'll meet you in dreams
You're staring back at me
With those eyes I've longed to see
Swimming into your abyss
Break me down, tear me apart
I'd be different if we could go back to the start
If I knew then, all I know now
I wouldn't have left, I wouldn't let you walk out
I'd tell you that I love you
I'd tell you that I need you
I'd tell you that I hate you
I miss your paper skin
Euphoric fiction
The idealized version
Of a love that could have been
Oh what if?
Break me down, tear me apart
I'd be different if we could go back to the start
If I knew then, all I know now
I wouldn't have left, I wouldn't let you walk out
I'd tell you that I love you
I'd tell you that I need you
I'd tell you that I hate you
I wish we were friends
Wish I was indifferent
Wish I wasn't hurt
I wish I was yours
I wish you were here
I wish you would heal
I wish you could love me
I wish you were real
I sometimes wake up and wish
You'd hold me like you did
But you didn't exist
You were a story I created
To pull me further from the truth
That it was never love with you
