Crutch
I was your gem during that time
like any other, you managed to combine
mystery and your command
I regret having to tell you the following
but your existence is no longer
enough for me.
From afar, pretty
shut your mouth
my boy, your words
just stay there
and what does it matter if I no longer believe them
but I love you
and I...
Thought you were the crutch I needed
One step closer to the outside
if I write these verses
to tear you apart
to devour your beautiful heart.
And when I start to heal
you come and say: baby, do you want to start over?
And I say and I drag myself
and I can't keep up
because I always look for you
in streets and crowds
and you no longer even replace
a reason for the waste.
and even if you were made of gold and honey
you would stay with the body of another that brings you joy.
Thought you were the crutch I needed
One step closer to the outside
if I write these verses
to tear you apart
to devour your beautiful heart.
And when I start to heal
you come and say: baby, do you want to start over?
And I thought you were the crutch I needed
One step closer
take me outside
if I write these verses
to tear you apart
to devour your beautiful heart
And I know you're with someone else
and you don't want me that way
I know I'm a masochist
who sees you in everything
I know I reached a point
and I'll have to stop
but is there anything wrong with fantasizing?
