better half of me

when all i want is for you to see, the side that i don't show to anyone, in fear that they may turn and run, alone and incomplete, no more tears to cry, no more blood to bleed, i'll fall forever endlessly, when you should be the ground beneath my feet, the better half of me, when all i want is for you to see, the side that i don't show to anyone, in fear that they may turn and run, alone and incomplete, no more tears to cry, no more blood to bleed, broken promises that are like road kill, they're on the side of the street, concrete casualties of love, chewed up and spit out, raise high then drop down and now, i don't know what's left of me, and i collect myself, and crawl through the shadows, reach out my hand to the sky and shout out, i'll never make these same mistakes again, cause someone out there holds the key to my heart, and do everything to tear it apart, by never allowing myself to let you in, when all i want is for you to see, the side that i don't show to anyone, in fear that they may turn and run, alone and incomplete, no more tears to cry, no more blood to bleed
