You Might

we're face to face
the time you'll wait
never let go of me

to show up late
to stay awake
a day to just be free

more nights to pass
plus ones I've had
things I've yet to know

feelings that last
a twisted past
I begged you not to go


a fuse that's lit
the choice I picked
to start with something true

the pain I feel
the guard I've built
my lonliness subdued

what's worth the fight
to give your life
over some dirty greed

to say you might
or one day try
is not what this world needs
