Crutch
I try to fight it
I try to forget it
It used to be my comfort zone
Now it has lost it's luster
For my eyes have awoken
Yet in time of weakness
It still pulls me in
This artificial safety
Is like a drug
It brought back my innocence
When there was no responisbility
And stress didn't exist
Before everything fell apart
Oh what i would offer
To feel what i felt then
Priceless
However,
I have leaned on my crutch
Longer than i should
Everyday of every moment
I try to fight it
I try to forget it
This past of mine
Won't let me go
