Holding My Breath

I keep on holding my breath, so my words won't hurt you
You said the way you treated me makes you feel like a monster
This ocean's cold at first touch, but then rejuvenating
The best gift I can give you is tell you that you hurt me
Better than a ceramic mug, so you can drink up all your praises
You tried to see with fresh eyes but froze me in the future
The M in 'me' needs flipping. A 'we' is much in order
There is no separation, the pawns and kings are not so different
How can we make friends with our monsters
So we don't end up here again?
You wrote it down in red ink before I ever got there
I keep on holding my breath, why do I want to protect you?
The funny thing is I know you did the best you could have
You said the way you treated me makes you feel like a monster
You call it uncontrollable, but I am here to beg to differ
