you can weep for 6 years and not even know you’re doing it it's hidden underneath layers of obligation yes i can do that, sure I’ll be there and what would you like for dinner my mind casts back to that moment of vulnerability fearing forever being alone I succumbed to the thrill of feeling fire in the belly I succumbed to what I now know was just my attachment to the possibility beyond love’s beautiful beginnings I made a little compromise out of fear not having the strength to walk my path alone I succumbed to the need for others i projected my needs onto something external My error in short was this: mistaking everyone for what I’m searching for Sure, we all want love’s beginnings but are we brave enough for love’s endings

when your armour slips
you can weep for 6 years and not even know you’re doing it it's hidden underneath layers of obligation yes i can do that, sure I’ll be there and what would you like for dinner my mind casts back to that moment of vulnerability fearing forever being alone I succumbed to the thrill of feeling fire in the belly I succumbed to what I now know was just my attachment to the possibility beyond love’s beautiful beginnings I made a little compromise out of fear not having the strength to walk my path alone I succumbed to the need for others i projected my needs onto something external My error in short was this: mistaking everyone for what I’m searching for Sure, we all want love’s beginnings but are we brave enough for love’s endings
