interlude
Usefulness is only deemed by someone who needs it
You made me feel useful
For once in my life, I meant something to someone
Whether that was using me or not, I don’t care
You seem happy with him; I wish I were him
Right person wrong time, didn’t know love was our antonym
Tell me what you despise, or don't, it might lead me to my demise
How could you hate me, do nothing but berate me
Falling doesn't seem so bad when you have someone falling with you too
Finding solitude in similarity, a common ground of misfortune
There are no other words I can think to say
I love you
I miss you
I hate what you did to me
I don't understand why you did
I’ll never get an answer for any of those questions
The next best thing I can do is assume your intentions
I’d make up a fourth law of motion
To give you the whole ocean
Because blue is your favourite colour
I’d grab you a handful of the constellation
Even if you saw it as a measly donation
You deserve the world, as I’ve said before
That world doesn't need to include me, an afterthought will do
