I love you more than I can say to you
Choking on my words around you

Never making any sense
What I need to say won’t come through for you

What am I so afraid of?

You feel this too don’t you?

You see right through me I can’t hide around you
It’s like you see the truth right on my lips
I’m holding back like I always did

It feels right in the silence
No need to make sense of the madness
Far beyond words, lost on your island

Your heart speaks a language only love can decipher

Burn with me, brighter

When did we get so far from the truth?
Who can feel less, what are we trying to prove?

This fire it burns for you
This fire it consumes every last bit of what I can’t remember

Do you feel it? Do you feel it too?

I want the truth but I’m terrified to show it
What would it take?
If I knew, I’d go running

Right back to the place where it all started
Before we departed
I’d risk being the one broken hearted

If I only believed I was the only one you wanted

Running away at the first pound to the chest
Yes
Can you guess?
Thinking I’d be missing out on the rest

Restless nights
I keep my head held high
This pride it won’t subside
It leads me astray, miles away

It’s hard to believe
That the truth can set free
At the floodgates I stand
Holding back, heart in my hands

Terrified of where you’re standing
If I tell you that I love you,
Then will you catch me?

Sitting back I try to find
My peace of mind
Taken back I try, to my demise I fly

Fly in circles through the night,
Stay with me it’s alright

Under the moonlight, Luna May I
Bathe in the stars, Luna May I
Show you my scars, Luna May I

Steady growing
Tumbled stone I’m flowing

The breeze against my shoulders,
It’s different this time,
Waking up to another life

The magic it carries me home, holds me over
I’m running, I run into your arms
I take cover

Bury me and my remains
I’ll never be the same
Etched in my bones like a Phoenix I burn
Ashes to ashes I learned,
This love it was and is
My only cure

Sober thoughts in this wild mind of mine
Nights I’d give anything to make you mine
Take my hand, walk with me, let’s go higher
Where the truth sets you free, higher

No where to hide when you’re high,
No where to hide when you’re higher

Elevate your mind when your high
Elevate your mind, higher

Take my hand walk with me let’s go higher
Where the truth sets you free, higher

I write because I’m trapped inside my mind
The words circle around before I can forget them
One after another
Can’t always tell them apart
They tear me apart

All of which I could have said
Buried with the bones of what could have been
Heavy on my heart I sink
I come up for air only to find you unaware
Yet again
Sailing away because I’m too afraid to anchor
Rock steady with your love buried

Uprooting what it once was
Turning over the stagnant soil
Planting a seed each time we fall in love with other
