My baby!
When you're awake you're
Brave,
Sarcastic,
Defensive,
And bright
When you're asleep, you
Hold onto me all night
Restless, afraid of the dark,
Of lions and of sharks
The two of us together
Makes an interesting pair
We're two orphans
Alone.
Independent.
Scared.
Looking for someone to fix us
Darling, you know I've tried
If I said that I can fix you,
God knows that
I lied

I've covered your metal with ribbons
Little trinkets and delights
I'll put on my new dress
When I see you out tonight
Maybe I won't feel it
Maybe I can grin
When you wrap your arms around me
And when your claws dig in

You always say that I'm beautiful
But I know the truth
Just don't.
Don't.
Don't!
Please, I'm begging you.
Prince Charming -
You're ripping me apart
Stop.

You always say that I'm perfect
But I know the truth
I know what perfect is
It's not me
It's not you
But perhaps we could stay
Forever
Just like this
For the closest thing to perfect was the feeling of that
Kiss
