Rollercoaster, Pt. 2

Welcome to the ride I call home
A place where the wheels twist and turn
Many times each day
It makes my head spin
From all the ups and downs
Full spins half spins quarter spins
My mind and body goes through
Everyday messing with the chemicals
Flowing through my brain
Are you ready to ride
In the front seat with your belt fastened
So tight it hurts to move

We're on this ride together
You and me on this wild journey
It amazes me that you stayed
Past the merry-go-round stage
Where everything's all peachy
And easy at the beginning
But you took on the challenge
To ride the leviathan with me

You let me find myself
After the wheels fell off
And the ride kept derailing
Off the tracks more than once
Mistake after mistake
It was you that made the sacrifices
It was never me that did
It was always you
That put my health before yours
I'm sorry the ride I took you on
Had rusted wheels and faulty brakes
I didn't want these residual effects for you

We're on this ride together
You and me on this wild journey
It amazes me that you stayed
Past the merry-go-round stage
Where everything's all peachy
And easy at the beginning
But you took on the challenge
To ride the leviathan with me

A note to self from future me
Appreciate what you have
Before it's all disappears
And you can't fully recover from it
Giving you permanent scars
That you will have for eternity
Something you can't afford
Even if the price was dirt cheap

We're on this ride together
You and me on this wild journey
It amazes me that you stayed
Past the merry-go-round stage
Where everything's all peachy
And easy at the beginning
But you took on the challenge
To ride the leviathan with me
