I fall in love with everyone I know, Head over heels by the second hello. Because, when you like someone, there are two first impressions: Hello, nice to meet you, Get to know you, Come to love you. And hello, wow I like you. It’s all in the hello. Like, Hello, I am broken. I introduce my scars like I introduce myself. Because you should know what you’re getting into, Before you commit to hello. And hello is a trap, Because for me, my handicap, Is the limitless love I have for everyone but myself. It doesn’t take very long, Once you let me in, For me to find a way to love you. For your flaws, For your secrets, For all the reasons you hate yourself. Because I see the beauty in it, And I see beauty in you. I’ll give it away, My love to you. You can have it, And me, Every piece. Because I don’t want any of it, But I want it to do good. So if I can give you even one shred of light, It will be worth all my darkness. For I feel everything, And I fall in love with everyone I know, Head over heels by the second hello.

The Second Hello
I fall in love with everyone I know, Head over heels by the second hello. Because, when you like someone, there are two first impressions: Hello, nice to meet you, Get to know you, Come to love you. And hello, wow I like you. It’s all in the hello. Like, Hello, I am broken. I introduce my scars like I introduce myself. Because you should know what you’re getting into, Before you commit to hello. And hello is a trap, Because for me, my handicap, Is the limitless love I have for everyone but myself. It doesn’t take very long, Once you let me in, For me to find a way to love you. For your flaws, For your secrets, For all the reasons you hate yourself. Because I see the beauty in it, And I see beauty in you. I’ll give it away, My love to you. You can have it, And me, Every piece. Because I don’t want any of it, But I want it to do good. So if I can give you even one shred of light, It will be worth all my darkness. For I feel everything, And I fall in love with everyone I know, Head over heels by the second hello.
