Raices

When you’re stretched too thin And you find it hard to breathe Just wait a little bit for me So I can teach you to stand still Even if I can’t do it myself I will rip both of my eyes off So you can finally see I will rip both my legs off So you can have something to stand with And when I have nothing else to give I will hand my heart in To your calloused hands That have bled out from trying And I’ll confine to you my thoughts The ones that don’t make sense at all So you can cherish them and remember All the good memories I have saved of you So you can see yourself from my eyes And realize, how perfect you are How flawless you look, how quickly you talk How with a single move you can make a whole new star All I need for you to know Is that if you’re in a dead void And you don’t have anything to hold on to I will be by your side after only my soul’s left And even if I’m too broken for you to mimic Or too lost for you to find me I’m grateful you have my heart Because you could’ve never broken it in any pieces because all the things you touch Come alive in new raíces.
