I Can't Without You

I Can't Without You


The cold is unbearable
I love it, as long as I can feel sultry droplets rush it away

It’s like I want to smash the phone in half
Though it’s not anger
I can imagine things in many other ways
Better but stranger

But I can’t make out a verse without drifting off
It’s like when I forget to breath
Or laugh for no such thing

And I wonder in how many ways I can apologize
For not wanting to live life
For feeling like I need to blast away from my shadow
That would only leave you in a tank of oxygen too shallow

I battle this confusion, these tears, not knowing why
Just like I don’t know why I look up to find the moon every night
Or can’t figure out why I only see you as perfect
Why you would want to stay mine

Like I can’t question why I can endure hard buckets of pouring rain
But tremble at little gusts of wind
Paranoid my window will come crashing in

Just like I keep telling myself life will turn out alright
When truthfully I don’t know

I only know the cold is bearable
As long as you’re here to keep me stable.
