How do I fill the you shaped hole inside my soul
Encounters with no foundation to try and bridge the gap
But my heart just gets dimmer as they wedge open the cracks
Reading self help articles about how to forget someone who won't love you back
Getting drunk on melancholy and thoughts of things i lack
I'll never be them no matter how much i want to be in your eyes
I'll never be them no matter how badly i wanna be by your side
So many forces pulling and pushing each other.
The clear line where the light pollution from being open gets brushed outward into a blurred, vast darkness.
You don't want to collect anything that's ugly or broken and it leaves me wondering what You'll think of me when You get to know more of it
I'll never be the polished nautilus you want me to be
I'll never be something bathed in all-abstracted symmetry
I'll never be the one you fall asleep next to at night
I'll never be the one you want to place your hand inside
This doesn't feel right
This doesn't feel right
This doesn't feel right
This doesn't feel right
This doesn't feel right
This doesn't feel right
This doesn't feel right
It will never feel right
With me in your life
