Not Enough

catching a break

catching a stray

chasing an idiot and losing the race

clutching your hair

your hand on my face

we're going faster and I'm having to brace myself so

say when you fell

oh did it hurt?

could you tell?

it would feel like this

and when you return

with or without your grace

could you tell me

you’ll remember my name

we fight not to break

but envy the same

living in spite of one another

so now when you fall,

I’ll pick it all up.

could it get back to you?

bracing the fall

making the call

turning my shoulder take the brunt of it all

you asking why?

not enough time.

don't have the energy to even lie

say when you fell

oh did it hurt?

could you tell?

it would feel like this

and when you return

with or without your grace

could you tell me

you’ll remember my name

we fight not to break

but envy the same

living in spite of one another

so now when you fall,

I’ll pick it all up.

could it get back to you?

could it get back to you?

will you remember, remember my name?

say when you fell

oh did it hurt?

could you tell?

it would feel like this

and when you return

with or without your grace

could you tell me

you’ll remember my name

we fight not to break

but envy the same

living in spite of one another

so now when you fall,

I’ll pick it all up.

could it get back to you?
