Lay your hand here..
Keep your eyes on mine..
Oh I'm scared of change,
of truth and pain,
And goodbyes..
Keep your hand on my heart,
and listen to it beating hard,
Would you trace the scars,
That no one else will find?
Cause I'm letting you in through the secrets of my life..
Oh i'm always lost,
Always tryna find new ways home
But there's no more running back
Just a distant glance,
at my 6 year old self's broken hope
I've been hurt and shaken
But i hope you'll listen..
Oh just let me say this..
i'm emotionally naked,
In more ways than they'll ever understand..
Cause you, you let me be me
And you set all of my guilt free
So tonight let this heart to heart
Let every word i whisper help you see
my hearts for the taking,
I'm emotionally naked,
saying..
'This is who i really am'
And you're so perfect
Whereas i'm a work in progress
Im vulnerable,
And I've lost it all
So help me start again..
Would you, learn to love me
And try to trust that i
Won't get bad again
I'm in repair
but no tattoos or poetry
Are as effective as you holding me
So save me from my insecurities tonight..
Yeah love's all we've got,
And i'm sure it has no cost
Cause theres no paying back
Its all just giving back
And i'm stripping off all the layers
And putting an end to all this fake behaviour, I'm emotionally naked,
And my heart is yours for the breaking if not for the love making
Just stick around for me to say this
I'm emotionally naked,
Emotionally naked..
But not scared at all.
Different from my usual stuff, really went for it this time, this is just raw and natural words it is irrelevant to me if you don't like it at all but appreciate the courage it took to be.. Well, emotionally naked' x
