So shatter the illusions
Mine and yours
This rash proclamation does not come without fear
I've thought more than a thousand ways a single person could ruin the world
Us humans tend to be more monster than angel anyway
You're not alone in that way

Curiosity has always been my sin
To pull back the curtain and glimpse the story within
What harm could that do to a girl miles away?

I know what harm, but I also know its saving grace

This is not to be about saving
This is not about darkness and light
Or wrong and right
Because really what is that in the end?

You say you spin your words rarely with good intent
And then use them to warn me away

I'm more patient than that
This is not about love or companionship
This is about having someone to listen

Soon, you said no. But not to someday.
