Arcadia

Arcadia

I know you make me happy
and it gives me something more.
If they all flew away
and left us here
would you still be around?
I need to be alone
with that smile I've known
for years.
Could you possiby want
it at the time
when they all want you too?
So many answers
make me feel so small,
I know I'm not them--
but then again
do I really want my standards
cut away
to try and aspire to
girls I would never wanna be?
It'll break us down--
let it lay where it lays
As I hold you in bed
I look up at your face
and wonder how the fuck
you started to feel so safe,
And why did I waste my time
on lies
When you were always there
and just what I've always
needed to survive
