Give for the Takers

I give my all for the takers
And I’m real for the fakers
Here’s my wound, you grab salt shakers
I’m a fool, you’re queen of the heart breakers
I’m rollin’ downhill with no brakes, and 
I’ll raise you like the stakes ‘cause
To keep you I will lose me
Feel useless, you can use me
I’m on your team, you never choose me
You grab me, hold on loosely
I drown, you sip like loose leaf
I frown, you smile so cruelly
I’m down so you feel higher
Watch as I catch on fire
You warm your hands and dance in smoke
And choke me till I die in your arms
Like no shit, I won’t admit what you are
I bought a gift for your birthday
Get nervous like I’m in third grade
We’re old now we get older
And response is just colder
This silence, I’m so over
But I still long to hold your
Hand in mine, I’ll wait in line
I’ll say I’m fine
I’ll love from a distance, you define
You decide, I’ll hide, I’ll ride the waves of craving
A moment of your attention
Please can you see my good intentions?
