Transitional

I was a transition

Put in a fucked up position

I guess you didn’t listen

Your life is a competition

I was the buffer

while you trained to get tougher

Scoping out for another

My trust left to suffer

You knew I was weary

so you treated me dearly

But I never did fall

Thank god for the wall

Closer to indifference

Further from forgiveness

There’s unfinished business

and emotional distance

My love is cataclysmic

Your needs are parasitic

My gut is fatalistic

Your independence was a gimmick

Your lack of self-awareness

is emotionally careless

It won’t bring your past back

The baggage won’t unpack

Your need to be desired

and have your lifestyle admired

leads to nothing but heartache

from new lovers you forsake

It won’t bring your life back

Your baggage won’t unpack

You need to let her go

You need to let yourself grow
