I know I’ve missed my chance
But the truth remains the same
No matter how much I love you
No matter how much you care
(If you still do at all)
It would never work
For I’m too afraid to fall

I fear you cannot catch me
Even if you watched and waited
Somehow I would go beyond your outstretched arms
And if you did rescue me somehow
My weight and yours would be too much

We would fall together
Through the cracks
And there would be nothing to grab on to

There would be nothing to hold on to
