Knew It All Along

Midtown

You could say I knew it all along,

That you were all I wanted to know.

The pain has made you grow strong.

The scars inside have made you beautiful.



Stop breathing for me you said.

It's your right to shun dependence.

When you shun.

When you're scared to accept

someone to share your regrets.



When you're aching,

you go it alone.

When you want to,

you take what you need to make you whole.



I know it's not easy.

I know I can't feel what you feel

Trust just don't come easy

cause to trust is to depend.



You could say I knew it all along,

That you were all I wanted to know.

The pain has made you grow strong.

The scars inside have made you beautiful.



Stop breathing for me you said.

It's your right to shun dependence.

And when you shun.

And you're scared to accept

someone to share your regrets.



I know it's not easy.

I know I can't feel what you feel

And trust just don't come easy

cause to trust is to depend

and who wants to give up that part of them?



You know you can have it if you want to.

I'll find you,

Unrelated, cultivated.

When you wake up incubated in me,

You're free to leave if you

knew it all along
