That Applies Here

Take all of what I've built.
Just take it away from me.
You! Yes you! Are the only one who
could ever do this to me.
And now I feel like I'm not real,
like I'm something just to stare at.
And now all I see
is the latest chapter of me
just turning its last page.
I can't hold this burden
on my shoulders forever.
The strongest love was meant to stand,
but only when its magic can really hold.
You've heard that saying:
Too much of a good thing is bad.
Well let me just say that that applies here.
