I'Ll Never Be Good For You

I’ll never be good for you,
I’m the poison that you’ll never taste
I’m the broken heart that you’ll never see coming
The best time of your life that will end

I’ll never be good for you,
I’m the job you’ll get fired from
The drama that’ll never stop
I’m the race,
You’ll lose over and over

I’ll never be good for you,
I’m the coldest winter ever,
The tsunami that wiped out Japan
The landslide that took you with me,
The hurricane filled with hate

I’ll never be good for you,
My secrets are a closet,
You never want to open
The fire you never want to sit next to
The room you never want to get stuck in

But underneath all of that,
I am the river,
Running deep
The tropical rain forest
With the hidden treasure deep within
I am the sunset,
That sets after the storm
Peacefully reminding you that everything is worth it
