There's a song bird in my chest I can no longer suppress.
Please excuse me while I allow myself the luxury of craziness:
I can't help that you're scared, I was scared too
And still made myself vulnerable for the sake of giving something to you
Yet never was I ever given a chance to soar, and it's sad I'm getting used to being this sore.
Of course it's gonna end the same
But someone give me a start and I'll make you grow
I speak love in a language you don't yet know.
I wanna bend in a thousand directions
Like the sun does, like light does, like life in my bones exploding
Cause for a moment time stopped without anyone else knowing.
I don't want to jump in for the sake of your loneliness
The same one I've learned to live with
Like listening to the blues beautifully for some reason it soothes me
Cause when I take that dive I dive deep.
I'm leaving soon and life may not always rhyme
But I'll still think of you and smile from time to time.
