my narrative

Seven short days to write down my fears

Several more lies, ones that I've told for years

Step on inside, push every button

Read every line, see every flaw because it's written

With an oversensitive, positive, negative narrative

And my over-emotional, my unpredictable characteristics

Lost and found cufflinks, aspiring artists

Drunk on one too many drinks

Carvings and sidewalks and streetlamps and night talks

That's my narrative

The warm touch of trust

Locked in these pages

Falling in love

With who I am in all these faces

Come take a look

go and dissect me

An open book

Perfect and sad and kinda messy

With its oversensitive, positive, negative narrative

And my over-emotional, my unpredictable characteristics

October and birthdays, coffee shops on Thursdays

Crying on the first date

Breaking bad habits

Slow dancing to ballads

That's my narrative

Romantisize the moments

Write down the ones I'm holding onto

Overprotective, kind of obsessed

Breaking trust, royal flush

Positive, negative

Oh, that's my narrative

That's my narrative
