Here I am
Once again
Putting myself out there
Going out on a limb
Stepping in front of the firing squad
Praying that this time
You'll save me
You'll swoop in like the hero I see you as
You'll save the damsel I never thought I'd be
Here I am
Opening myself up
Letting you in
Hoping this time might be different
Literally being the definition of insanity
Because that's what love is
It's letting go
Hoping someone else will hold on
Falling
Trusting someone to catch you
Going insane
Wishing to find clarity
So this is me
One last time
Hoping
Praying
Wishing
That this time someone might hold on
This time someone might catch me
This time I might find clarity
Though I don't think this time
Or any other time
Will ever get the result I want
I think this time I might get the result I need
Third time's the charm, right?
Third time may just be the time you finally say yes
Or that I finally move on
Finally realize we won't end up together
No matter how much I want it
Or how much I need it
Or how much others see it
This time I think its the one
The one that either opens you eyes to me
To us
To our potential
Or maybe to one that opens mine
To you
To us
To our limitations
This time
I don't know why
But this time
All I think
All I hope
All I fear
Everything in me just keeps saying
Maybe this time.
