Carrying a thousand mistakes in my arms
Thoughts weighed down by words and worry
In my mind rolling back and forth
Judgement making vision blurry
Surrounding area fades into the background
I watch anything but you
We each play with the other's feelings
A foolish game we both are used to
All my stress becomes complicated
Stretch my patience until barely there
Give myself another headache
Wasting peace on you, I stare
Friend? Foe? Not sure anymore
In your eyes darkness is rising
Love you no matter what shape you form
Any secret identity you may be disguising
I take your hidden baggage
All that I will never see
Welcome confidential cargo onboard
I will accept you for you if you accept me for me

Carrying a thousand mistakes in my arms
Thoughts weighed down by words and worry
In my mind rolling back and forth
Judgement making vision blurry
Surrounding area fades into the background
I watch anything but you
We each play with the other's feelings
A foolish game we both are used to
All my stress becomes complicated
Stretch my patience until barely there
Give myself another headache
Wasting peace on you, I stare
Friend? Foe? Not sure anymore
In your eyes darkness is rising
Love you no matter what shape you form
Any secret identity you may be disguising
I take your hidden baggage
All that I will never see
Welcome confidential cargo onboard
I will accept you for you if you accept me for me
I'll take you for who you are if you take me for everything
