Sometimes at night I stare at the street.

The dark and the glass make it seem so calm

While a waterfall cascades in my heart.

My life was always stable, my soul anything but

Like a live circuit with something missing.

When I cried, the world failed to pity.

When I ran, the world was there waiting.

Nowhere to hide, I could only fight.

Nothing broke me, yet nothing could comfort me.

 

No one can know how hard I tried not to fall for you

But you are everything I ever wanted to be.

Where I changed my soul, you changed the world.

How can you match stride with my insanity so easily

Yet keep your own intact?

I didn't know one as strong as you could still be human.

You call me strange, unpredictable, violent.

You don't suspect a creature like me needs your love.

You'll never see the tears I shed when I think of you

As I imagine you and me, sometimes at night.
