It should be a crime
That we argue so much
That I wrong you so much
Though I try so much
I remember when I never needed to
I was just good
You were just young, I guess
I should be wiser, perhaps.
I should be well off by now
But how I have stalled
I should be lounging
Instead I am anxious
I am losing time
Fighting almighty
To breakthrough now!
To give you a home to grow old in
I have been battered and chafed hopeless
But I was hopeful you'd be with me throughout
And you have
But I need you now to remember me.
Faulty and human
Fighting and falling
Falling and fighting
Till death do us part.
Falling Slowly
