you walked out in the city
with your own blood right behind you
it's been killing you for months or years
or maybe even since you were born
you search the streets like a hospital
looking for your family
thinking 'if it just stays like this'
i don't like this
i don't think i ever could

you said we got so fucking close
i'm not sure if your thoughts end where mine begin
and if that feeling lasts forever
i think i would jump off of a bridge too

and when you take my breath
i hope i take yours too
i don't breathe without you
i know
when i take your hand
i hope you take mine too
i'm nothing like you
i know

i can see you
you are real
i recognize you

you beat the shit out of your brain
for even thinking they're to blame
but somewhere in you i think you know you're right
those useless fucking assholes that just
brush you off like dust
and sent you off into the world
with nothing really nothing at all
and this heavy clinging concrete heat
has got you stumbling for a breath
and you notice everyone that's staring
like they've got something for you
or like they know something you don't
or like they wanna be with you and then
that's when i see you

i'll take you in
share something
i'm nothing like you
i know
i'll take you in
be a friend
you could take my life
i know

i can see you
you are real
please don't hurt me
