Life in Numbers

Nine times, nine times

I was told "I love you" by somebody that didn't love me back

Eight times, eight times

I tried to hurt myself just to make it feel numb, to feel less

Seven times, seven times

I prayed for my father to beat cancer

'Cause I don't know anybody stronger

Six times, six times is all I need

Six kisses is all I need to fall in love with you

Five times, five times

I told my mom it's okay to be just like her

Four times, four times

I signed my life away and begged for it back

Three times, three times

I lost the greatest people in my life

Two times is the amount of texts I sent to Cisco

Before he got gunned down

One time, one time is all I need to tell myself

"It's okay, girl, you can cry now"

I miss you, Cisco
