You Were the Boulder that Crushed Me
Our love was a waterfall but you built a dam.
It's like a boulder
A huge boulder in the back of my throat
When all this was just shrugged off my shoulder
I forget and forget until it suddenly rolls down my cheek
Not just slowly
But like Niagra Falls
Everything just happens so fast
I'm falling down the waterfall
While the boulder is right above me
I’m just falling through the air
Waiting in anticipation for the boulder to squash me
But because of the law of gravity, we fall at the same speed
We cannot fall forever
Once I reach the forest floor the boulder comes three seconds after
You were the boulder
Our love was the waterfall
You always found me
You always crushed me
Our love was the last beautiful thing we had together
The last amazing sight we saw with our eyes
Before everything was crushed
Our love was the waterfall, and it could not go on forver
It has to touch the ground and end sometime
