We took each other for granted Back then, every thing felt jaded We were too busy with our own chaotic minds, not even to find a little time to assess the whole situation No room for real talk; just scrambling around for solutions anything to reduce and slow the pace of the ongoing problems We've taken each other for granted either grown numb, apart, or exhausted Sadness feels more like a distraction We've kept quiet over what really needs to be mentioned "It's okay," we'd tell each other and ourselves, like we normally do silently wondering if it's ever been really true Then again, I never have the heart to turn you so blue We still take each other for granted Somehow, you still wish I'd remain all quiet and well-reserved like that good little girl who'd hardly said a word, but I'm not her anymore and I'm done being unheard Please, listen You don't have to understand every thing, but at least accept that I have my own logical reasons Will we ever be like this: taking each other for granted, over time we'll surely soon miss? You can't expect a grown cat to go back being a kitten It's my turn I'm the one who's supposed to give you the protection even when I still need more time to learn Please, set me free Surrender all your worries to The Almighty Let it be by His Mercy that I'll always be as alright as can be... I'm sorry You know you can't always take care of me I can't go back hiding in the same old nest even with your open arms and days are far from the best Let me find my own way to pass this test... ...and no, this doesn't mean that I love you less...
