To Devon, With Love
All was well in the honeymoon phase,
But gradually nerves began to fray
Suddenly we're in this cycle, shut in
Maliciously pushing each other's buttons
I tell you all the time you're my shooting star
Empty words to show you how amazing you are
But I realize, as a teardrop runs from your eye
You're even prettier when you cry
One minute I'm extending a helping hand
The next, breaking you down just because I can
From heaven to hell and back in a day
And neither of us can tear ourselves away
We've made this chaos our comfort zone
Proven wrong the bullshit line about sticks and stones
Tearing each other down with words, building back up with the same
We're both locked in this twisted game
One of these days a sharp realization
Will make one of us willing to change our situation
One good thing about saying goodbye
Is you're so much prettier when you cry
