It’s a prologue with a preface

An unconsolable defeat

It isn’t what you want, but it sure as hell is what you need

It’s a border of perception

The lines drawn in between

You’re throwing water on your canvas and it’s smearing all your ink

Don’t wash yourself clean of me

Maybe you lost the reference in the course of seven years

While you were holding all my trauma

I was holding all your fears

We were never quite as bad as we made each other out to be

So here’s to the violins you hated

But listened to for me

You were the one who let me breathe again

I never got to thank you for everything you did

You were the one who let my demons end

You were the one who finally took me to the ocean

You made me feel safe in my own skin -

A damn near miracle after everything he did

You were the future that I had to end

Cause I couldn’t tell you that it happened again

You were the one

You were the one who

You were the one

You were the one who finally took me to the ocean
