I was the earth, and you were the sun
You spun like a compa** around all that I've done
And I know I've failed, but I tried my best
If only I could touch the hem of your dress
I was a pivot, and you were a lynchpin
You don't know the words, but you like how we bend
And you don't know me now, but you know who I've been
And if you could stay, you could love me again
Because life is a game of interpreting scars
The bruises on my face and the lines on your arms
I haven't forgotten you need carrying, too;
I'm the heaviest burden that ever you knew
