hold me closer, i don't want to be lonely anymore.  
i can't be any stronger or braver.  
i tried to touch the flame
but time and time again I've been scarred.  
don’t say i’m heartbroken, because i'm not;
i'm just scared of a life without your laughter.  
i can be what you want me to,
but it doesn't mean i'm ready to sacrifice
these concrete hips for a chance in your arms.  
i love too much to lacerate,
but i can leave a bruise till the grave hits you like a disease
and i am the grave keeper
laughing at your open eyes and bitten tongue.  
i'm sorry i can't be her, but i'm trying my best to be me.  
i'm not angry at her either.  
i wish her luck and hope she tears you in two
so you realize who i am and what you had.  
no one will save you.  
i'm sorry i can't be her,
i'm only glad i can be better than you.  
i only hope you'll hold me,
because i just can't be alone tonight.
