You Said You’d Chase Me

You said you’d chase me

But you didn’t

You try to blame me

I won’t listen

Heard you before

And I’m sorry if it seemed

Like I

Ignored you

Nothing to do

With my ears or eyes

Baby, it’s you

Who was stupid and blind

My heart shined bright for you

I was only busy trying to love me too

Such a shame

I was too much for you to handle

Now here we are

Entangled

Strangled

By this love scandal

Lost you somewhere

Instead, I’ll find me

Our baggage was too damn heavy

To carry

On my own

And now you see

How much I’ve already grown

Yet, we both never thought

I’d be doing it all alone
