You understand
You have uncovered inside me a heart that can shout for joy
I can lift my heart to your handed gifts
You are the strong line that fastens me
In commotion you are the million pieces of my relief

Iโ€™ve cried so often
On my knees I have screamed
In the crumbling of my life
God have mercy of this broken woman I am
Sensations of sorrow pour over me
I am forever thin-skinned
Fighting my own purpose
I am frightened of the human race
But here I am vulnerable
I have set the hundred masks free from their prison of my needing

No more acting
My eyes, and soul are bared naked before you
I need for nothing more than our embrace
You are more than a wish that happened

You broke free from what others held you by
You help me find answers
to questions that make me so angry sometimes


There has never been a yesterday I have left behind,
where I did not love the idea of the morning sun
It doesnโ€™t matter anymore
Another day with you
Is just right
Even if we did everything the same
all over again

I love you
