Not Yours To Save

I still feel the indentations
Of your fingertips
Mapping out new constellations
All across my skin

Two soldiers on
Opposing sides
Under one sky

For me
I know you’d sacrifice everything
Willing to rip the world apart
To keep me close to you
But I never asked you to

And though my heart is yours to break
My life’s not yours to save
It’s not your choice to make
It’s not your choice to make

You ignited something in me
That you can’t control
And I can tell it’s not the ending
You were hoping for

But I’ll risk it all
Even if I
Am on my own

For me
I know you’d sacrifice everything
Willing to rip the world apart
To keep me close to you
But I never asked you to

And though my heart is yours to break
My life’s not yours to save
It’s not your choice to make
It’s not your choice to make

Maybe every course I chart
Will lead me right back to your arms
But till then you have got to let me go

For me
I know you’d sacrifice everything
Willing to rip the world apart
To keep me close to you
But I never asked you to

And though my heart is yours to break
My life’s not yours to save
It’s not your choice to make
It’s not your choice to make
