Small

8 pm and I'm long gone
I want to go to sleep
I don't know why day to day challenges
take such a toll on me
The rain gets me down
and the sunlight wears me thin
I've had enough small talk
I've had enough of everything
And now i'm falling falling falling slow
and now i'm begging begging please don't go
I know i'm not much fun
but when the day is done
I love you so
and I don't mean to be a wreck
I don't mean weigh you down
I never meant to be this heavy burden that I am now
I don't mean to cry every 5 minutes
I don't mean to lose it all
I don't mean to be so fragile
I don't mean to be so small
You never say it
but i know i let you down
I can see it on your face
I try to soldier on
but it always turns out wrong
I always feel so out of place
The sea it swallows me
and the ground it sways
beneath my toes
I'm pretty good with balance
but i'm breaking more than you know
I'm falling falling falling slow
and now i'm begging begging please don't go
I know i'm not much fun
but when the day is done i love you so
And I don't mean to be a wreck
I don't mean weigh you down
I never meant to be
this heavy burden that I've become now
I don't mean to cry every 5 minutes
I don't mean to lose it all
I don't mean to be so fragile
I don't mean to be so small
And i don't mean to lose my cool
I don't mean to bring you down
I never planned on being someone
who would shut you out
I don't mean to fall short of every goal
I don't mean to lose it all
I don't mean to be so fragile
