Those nights still linger in my head. You know the nights, I use to bare my soul to you. You held my head so close, and so tight. I can still feel your nails running down my back. I always came to you when I needed you, but couldn't open up when I needed to. I avoided it at all costs. Afraid of you having to much. I don't know what your attraction to me was. You of any one, know my brain was a fucking mess. But you always called. It felt like you needed me. I couldn't tell you, I needed you more. My fucking pride always kept me from telling you, I needed you more. I kept telling myself it was so I wasn't hurting you.
Those nights still linger in my head. You know the nights you use to bare your soul to me. I held your head so close, and so tight. I still feel my hands running through your hair. You use to tell me how safe you felt in my arms, and how warm they were. You told me secrets only you and I knew. Your past, Your kids, everything. I can still feel every tear you shed. Those nights you used to try and fall asleep on my chest. You use to mess with the S on my chest.
Yes, those nights still linger in my head, and now my brain is even more of a mess. I told you a long time ago, one day you won't need me, and that day I'd be gone. You played it off, but I never did. I always hoped that day would never come. But it has, and well you don't need me anymore. I remember the first and last time I saw you, and the times in between. I hope I was able to take the pain away. But only yours. I'll be fine if I remain this way.
