6/8

Can’t look away when I find that you’re there
Hoping that one day you’ll know
Caught in the folds of a marigold
You made it work
Try to stay back but you’re gone for a week
Only to get up and run
Slipped in and out of a manifold
You saved yourself

I watch you
Can’t help
You know that no one compares
I watch you
Can’t help
You know that no one compares

Keep me awake while I think of the words
Never to say them out loud
I’m feeling sick to my stomach
And you make it worse

I watch you
Can’t help
You know that no one compares
