Getting kind of closed off, caught in what I bought

Watching as the days pass, leaving me to rot

All this heavy love we had wasn't what I thought

Or maybe it will never stop, no matter how I fought

​So are you ever gonna drop this avoidant trickery?

The back and forth, engulfed by waves, a heavy, drowning sea

You say you're happy on your own, content to be alone

With no one in your corner when your darkest thoughts have grown

​You know I could have helped you heal

But an afterthought I'm not

Careless with compassion

In a battle you forgot

Collapsing maps, no traction

Just a fleeting, cold reaction

Attractive but unlasting

Rubber band snapped back again

​Are you always gonna run, ignoring what it costs?

I can trick myself and say it's strictly all your loss

A lifetime of our fun is gone, the lines are getting blurred

Just because I scared you with my words—avoidant is absurd

​So just take away my oxygen

Remove the very name

So it can never reach the spark

And never catch the flame

Not burnt

No, I won't get burnt again
