I am not tearing up I am not losing it. My heart is heavy But I am not dropping it. It was once broken But never again am I letting it All the sweet memories I am hoping not to forget it. I saw the risk and I chose to take it I was dreaming of a fairy tale Maybe we could make it I tried to hide the feelings Maybe I could fake it But I ended up giving my heart up Maybe she won't break it. This time, I'm the victim, I'm the culprit I'm the preacher on top of the pulpit I'm the congregation to which I preach I'm the angel and i'm the devil I am everything in between.

I am not tearing up
As I sat, I watched closely How uncomfortable my gaze made her feel Not once, not twice, have I caught her eyes on me Even though I'm dying, I prefer not to see Love begets loves And love is never made for one It is not to be hidden, it is to be shown And to be treated with care, like precious gold. I'm good at putting up a front But now my guards are down There is this tingly feeling in my guts I think I've got butterflies. Butterfly of gold, butterfly of gold So fragile, yet very precious Butterfly of gold butterfly of gold Do not lose thy Luster to the test of love
