"I Had to Save You"

 

I entered into an unfamiliar room

Didn’t know what to come of it.

Leaving old friends behind

Will always leave a wound

 

Looking for the light

I ended up finding you

Held onto you tight

And I didn’t feel so blue

 

Suddenly this room felt familiar

I’ve felt this way before

Another timeline?

In another lifetime?

 

Felt my soul pushing me closer

Leaving me with much exposure

Our connection grew

And we both knew

 

Making the beautiful colors,

Leaving imprints on our souls

Newly blank canvases

And painting out of control

 

Messes were made

Individually, we prayed

Hoping we could clean up,

The chaos we created

 

Going back in circles and circles

Jumping over the same hurdles

We remain the same from the start

Tearing each other apart

 

We left scars and stains

And yes, there was pain

But I will do it all over.

If it means to meet you again and do it better.
