delikately - i think i loved the idea of you dying lyrics

you left the door half open
unsure whether you’d return or if i’d follow
your footsteps carried faint apologies
i held my breath
that was all i could do

i didn’t want to be your everything
just the one you’d never forget

i think i loved the idea of you
dying without me
keeping a piece of me, no one else could see
not to cause you pain, but to remain
etched in your memory
a wound you dressed in lines of poetry

i sleep through days just to dream
you’re still near
your shadow’s weight, a comfort i still bеar +
i’d rather see you fade from view
than givе your love to someone new

i didn’t want to be your everything
just the one you’d never forget

i think i loved the thought of you
remembering me
quietly
not to haunt your days
rather live in ways you couldn’t name
a ghost in every rhyme, that learned to sing in time
i no longer pine for you not as i once did
only the girl who wist she’d turn to dust
on your keepsakes, too sacred to sweep
not your evermore
just your never+thrown+away
the ache you fold into the linen drawer
still warm with my name
no wrath, no vengeance only a wretched
vow that linger in the seams of your forgetting

i think i loved the idea of you
dying without me
your heart still mine in some quiet eternity (quiet eternity)
i asked not to be your all, nor your always
but the scar the years could not conceal
on a monument, soft and silent
…forever remembered, never reclaimed
