Ache

If I tried to do this alone
 There's no chance that I'd make it
 It'd bury me
 I depend on you
 You're my home
 But god how it scares me to think that your patience is wearing thin
 Do you see it on her face, the resentment?
 For every time you shook her out of her sleep
 For every time you pushed and begged her to end it
 Stay with me, stay with me 'til it all passes me by
 I'm sorry this happens and thank you for giving me time
 Let me bury myself in your comfort
 Though I know that I'm leeching you dry
 Will you carry me, still call me lover
 Though the weight of me shows in your eyes
 I sense it, the increasing distance and
 I sense it, your exit plan forming and
 I sincerely fear that I've turned you to ice
 No longer your sense of warmth
 Stay with me, stay with me til it's all gone
 You're a shelter from storms no one sees as they're passing
 And you've weathered me silent and thankless
 Never asking
 Patience is the only word that I seem to forget
 Any lesson learned is lost in the process of living in...
 How many times will you allow me to cut you down?
 Unintentional incisions bleed you dry of your time
 Are you wasting your life with me?
 Pull out my eyes
 Great winding stairways leading to nothing
 built upon something I thought would change
 All I need is you
 Please leave me here
