never believed them
when they told me to steer clear
of love in this atmosphere

until the pain washed over
and I was unresponsive to the pressure of others
to have me open my mind
my heart, a sacred part of me

I never expected to fall like this
self-control is a lesson I stole
it's hidden, I can't reach it anymore

and everything goes as it should
until one day you say
some words that make my brain fray
in the best way
I'm restraining, I'm refraining

but there's not a thing in this world I can do
to stop myself from falling for you
