for the first time i am leaving my fate in the hands of another
and i stand here waiting,
hopelessly hoping

I am unnerved to the point that I consider completely turning back around and forgetting it all
because being alone with thoughts full of potential
is easier than relinquishing part of myself to you.
my naked body is nothing compared to you seeing me truly stripped down

just pour me a shot and play my favorite song.
the monsters under my bed will introduce themselves to you
and unapologetically i would let you in

but only if I turn around and know
that your hands are waiting there to hold mine
