fruitlessly waiting, he took her hand
for what are you wishing, she asked him

and he said oh i don't know why don't you tell me.

i'm just like that.

feeling trapped she tried to claw her way out
but why does the darkness close in so quickly.
she was almost there she thought the sun would shine

but it is never enough is it never enough
drowning in a barrage of what ifs

he told me he wants to keep me safe and happy
he never wants me to feel scared
but baby when i'm with you it's always fine

the problem is when you have to go away.
