you are new hope
for an old soul
you set me on fire
and cool my bones
you've woken me up
from quiet, still sleep
you made my heart sing
where before it would weep
there's a beauty in you
that I didn't see
it snuck in like snow
and set my mind free
there's nothing careful in us
or timid, or mild,
instead there is flame
unbroken, run wild
I am not afraid
I will not back down
because I am me
when you are around
