You gave yourself away But only to yourself You've built a life And every possibility exists If you gave it to me How can I be all of that Why would the world exist If I am the only one? You cannot know me Cleverness is like perfume The aroma is not life It is only to trick your mind I know every emotion The same as you I throw them in the air But I always drop them Being alone is a fortress My voice intrudes It is naked with purpose You must consider its strength Is it all to much A violin changes your feeling I try to be soft but beautiful A sound you cannot ignore You wait for another soul How long does a revelation take If I cannot make you laugh Is my kindness so worthless? I cannot see the scarf you wear I only know it hides your heart Forever guarded by God's hand Will I ever know its grace?

May I Come In?
You gave yourself away But only to yourself You've built a life And every possibility exists If you gave it to me How can I be all of that Why would the world exist If I am the only one? You cannot know me Cleverness is like perfume The aroma is not life It is only to trick your mind I know every emotion The same as you I throw them in the air But I always drop them Being alone is a fortress My voice intrudes It is naked with purpose You must consider its strength Is it all to much A violin changes your feeling I try to be soft but beautiful A sound you cannot ignore You wait for another soul How long does a revelation take If I cannot make you laugh Is my kindness so worthless? I cannot see the scarf you wear I only know it hides your heart Forever guarded by God's hand Will I ever know its grace?
