I Am Redeeming This Guitar

i am redeeming this guitar
by reimagining who we are
who you are to me and who i wish to be
for you
if i cannot be the one to hold you in my arms
i will find a way to love you as we are
but i may never sleep, just chasing a melody
something sweet enough to heal your every scar
so i am redeeming this guitar
though i am wishing on a star
in every moment of my grief choosing you
if this is now the choice
whose options break our hearts
the lesser evil all to clear
if i can’t have all of you
i’ll take what i can get
and if the things we believed as kids were true
could you believe it all for me
'cause i would believe it all for you
while i am redeeming this guitar
though i will always bear the scar
of who you are to me and who i wish to be
for you
