Love Me Back
My heart beats twice because yours is broken my lungs kiss yours because yours is blackened
Love me back
My heart beats twice
Because yours is broken
My lungs kiss yours
Because yours is blackened
My mouth speaks for you
Because yours falter
My mind thinks of you
Because yours is frozen
Love me back
When my arms are around your neck
Because you can’t hold it up on your own
When my legs walk for you
Because you won’t face the world
Love me back
My heart has cracks too
My lungs have holes too
My neck falls sometimes too
Love me back
Show me something
So I believe you aren’t as dead as you seem
Show me something
To see all I’m doing isn’t futile
Love me back
I can’t bear to see you this way
