My heart has sunk to the bottom of the sea,
The pirate's boneyard waiting for me,
Swept me so high upon the waves,
This powerful love...
for me, it did save.

Love for one,
When there is another
Fighting to get back,
Couldn't care
about destruction.

Selfish wills
the spoils of war
Drawing others in-
where there was little more.

Off balance now.
You have thrown me overboard
Still I cannot hate you.

So my heart sinks to the depths of this murky sea
In this triangle of love
No room for three.
The destructive force of a love triangle- the dynamic of three pared down to a couple.

Forever my favorite conquest, was this really
even about that, baby?
Well maybe that’s not the right word, a little too strong, a little too weak. I’ll never know who you were, what you meant
until I’ve forced myself to lose and commit you to memory
But you will remain my greatest adventure.
I have been urged by earnest violins
And drunk their mellow sorrows to the slake
Of all my sorrows and my thirsting sins.
My heart has beaten for a brave drum's sake.
Huge chords have wrought me mighty: I have hurled
Thuds of gods' thunder. And with old winds pondered
Over the curse of this chaotic world,-
With low lost winds that maundered as they wandered.

I have been gay with trivial fifes that laugh;
And songs more sweet than possible things are sweet;
And gongs, and oboes. Yet I guessed not half
Life's symphony till I had made hearts beat,
And touched Love's body into trembling cries,
And blown my love's lips into laughs and sighs.
People hate the word nice: always have.
The difference between "nice" and better than nice,
Is the difference between being told that you are loved
And feeling that you are loved.
On these sleepless cold nights I rant about you without having the slightest idea who you are

But tonight my foolish indecisive sorrows go out for you

Underrated,misunderstood,afflicted and most of all hurt. Your flaws allure me in what I call my own self-esteem. Everyone knows the overrated act you pull,  however they're only aware of just that.
Yet, I know the barriers around you as much as
I know the reason why they were built.
I know why you're afraid of hanging on,
I know I know
Yes I know I'm the reason
The conflict
And I'll continue to be
To be faithfully honest I love how your vulnerability attracts me
This vivid relationship creates a void in my heart only you can mend and by the end ill doubtfully cope with everything
But tonight I love you and the way you stand so  in your lonesome darkness
You are vital to me
