umbilical cord

I know you love me, and it's all love
But I had to rip this umbilical cord
it got around my neck
I was about to choke

One of the circumstances that make you be who you are,
or is it rather
the circumstances were because of who I am?

I know you love me, can't say I don't
but it intoxicates, bye dear, I had to wave
In our distance, we became close
we look so nice in our worlds...
my world feels like it can breathe on its own
only intersecting in times odd
I love you, but we have to coexist
never to share our cores

Yet your umbilical cord
will buy me the freedom I need,
not want.
Your umbilical cord, will serve a purpose
