I could tell you my truth until my heart is raw
Remove the bandages from my secrets until you love all my scars
Stare into your eyes so deeply until you believe that we are
Just as in common as the moon and a star
But until you decide to look and listen, one of us plays the fool
Your friends spoon-feed you lies until you are full
So every time I tell you I love you, you give me this look of disgust and throw up all the bull **** they fed you
You start to shed your shame on me, tell me to look at the mess I've made
And while you tear me apart, I pick up the pieces and offer it as all of my heart

I could tell you my truth until my heart is raw
Remove the bandages from my secrets until you love all my scars
Stare into your eyes so deeply until you believe that we are
Just as in common as the moon and a star
But until you decide to look and listen, one of us plays the fool
Your friends spoon-feed you lies until you are full
So every time I tell you I love you, you give me this look of disgust and throw up all the bull **** they fed you
You start to shed your shame on me, tell me to look at the mess I've made
And while you tear me apart, I pick up the pieces and offer it as all of my heart
