( sentence starters taken from thomston's topograph )
〝they watched their reflection, i watched them fall apart.〞
〝they got sicker, they never breathed the air like me.〞
〝i will show them to the surface again.〞
〝now they're wounded and it’s my fault.〞
〝got me like a hit and run.〞
〝don’t you know you’re inescapable?〞
〝you are the only one that makes me feel nervous like this.〞
〝you'd be better off if i was far gone.〞
〝i give you all, then take it back.〞
〝i've got you where i want you, but i don't even want you to stay.〞
〝would you hate me if i sent you away?〞
〝i don't trust my headspace, it never stays in one place for long.〞
〝i want to see your face when you beg for me to stay.〞
〝i don’t like it when you are far.〞
〝got so much to say, but it's better to run.〞
〝because i paint you in my mind, even after all you told me.〞
〝will i miss the way it feels to miss you?〞
〝and i wonder if in time, you would care if i forgot you.〞
〝don't you dare tell me that you never felt anything.〞
〝you pushed me out, and now my heart is cement.〞
〝because i'm always stuck between out the door and at your feet.〞
〝so you can paint me any way you like.〞
〝i can be the villain if it helps you sleep at night.〞
〝but you know that i gave all i had, and then some after that.〞
〝but you didn't say you loved me when it mattered.〞
〝at least it's something to worry about.〞
〝cause what if it's not everything you want?〞
〝but you would never leave.〞
〝wonder why you ever dreamt of getting out.〞
〝but it only hurts a little bit.〞
〝i'm tired of us just getting by.〞
〝what if it's not everything you want?〞
〝as long as we're here, nothing is real.〞
〝i can only be your champion for so long.〞
〝don't wanna love you just because i'm alone.〞
〝it's hard to make you not forget that we need you.〞
〝convince me that you're fine.〞
〝your bruises of honor are badges of war.〞
〝and i'll find my worth in more than open wounds.〞
〝when our arms are down, no one loses.〞
〝am i losing touch or do i think too much?〞
〝in spite of all the pressure, i'll walk until my feet bleed.〞
〝if you say it's temporary, i'll be gone.〞
〝knowing that if i don't play my cards just right, every part of this could vanish in my head.〞
〝if i said i wasn't anxious, it's a lie.〞
〝does that make me more human in your eyes?〞
