Thinkin’ ’bout what makes you so hyper aware,
What makes you tick as time tocks
Drinkin’ down my mistakes like air, to prove you’re there
As feelings stick, your line locks
Refusing to acknowledge the desire for anything of depth
Claiming to only want instant gratification
Choosing not to walk off the ledge so onto the wire you step
In the water you wade in the depths seemingly equal to the level of depravity
The kindness of which you impart, excusing it as self satisfying
Unless trouble is stayed you’re clinging like gravity
Blindness a switch, leave them in the dark
Your muse now you magnify
Purposeful double plays, stringing together a plot like your mad at me
Hiding your truth behind these huge walls
Burying yourself in distractions cuz you can’t admit what’s happened
Biding time till it calls
Sturdy yourself, be mindful of your actions
They tend to give your intentions away
I sink my teeth in but I won’t bite through
Feeding, now to dust I am a mite
It feels scary the weight of being in your sights
Weary of the fight, unsure which way is right
Try this time to unveil yourself anew, hell maybe even allow me to get close to you
You believe time is limited for people, like periods in a game
To use it up so fast you claim would be such a shame
Little do you know we’ve been given lifetimes to grow together this way
Fire may be dangerous and make you nervous to ignite
That’s only because fire you usually see only causes destruction
Less often it sparks something within a heart that will eternally burn
I’ll bet you believe after the burn we’ll require reconstruction
The truth is Darlin’ our fire only burns what you allow it to so believe me when I say the words I love you
