all I needed?
I was chasing shadows like you were the light right beside me.But you were the sun, and I was blinded by the sea.When love and comfort was all I looked for yet you only chose to show me shadows, and teach me how to walk home. Though it felt like the lessons were really just mirrors reflecting what I'd lost. Or just a disguise for the truth I'd yet to face that you felt burdened by my love and didn't know how to say I needed space.Flesh and blood More like a heart beating out of sync, more like a rhythm we'd both lose then find again. Yet you didn't make effort to look guess I was too afraid I'd see myself in the look and hide my inner thoughts bout what I really thought about you behind the mask, where my secrets were safe too. Thought you supposed to be my safe zone yet you turned the lights off, and I got lost in the haze It's funny now that I think about it I was always in a dark room imagining you're the light I'd touch not knowing your the one who blocked my windows when waking up with hope to the sun shining on my face. But now the rays are harsh, and I'm left to face the shadows I helped create, am I talking about reality or is it my heart that feels locked inside? Your love was alI I needed to survive.
