strings

when it’s love
there’s no such thing
as letting go without
any strings

now we’re unraveling.

we’re a kite in the wind
and it’s tearing me out of your hands
i used to fight fate
but now it’s too late
and i’m tired enough to give in

just tell me you’ve got faith we’ll be fine
tell me we can change, compromise.
promise me our dreams never died
that there’s still time, we won’t unwind

but that’d be a lie.
