I'm not saying that it's not gonna hurt
Because it does
It will
It will continue to hurt every single day
He will do things that will hurt
He will say things that will hurt
He will

But it's okay
It's a risk I am willing to take
It's a risk I am willing to embrace
I'd lay it all down
Give my best shot
Because I'm in love
Because I love
And knowing that it might work would have to be enough

"listen to this song about me"
i want you to hear what i can't put into words,
what i can't bear to tell you myself
i'll let the voice of another eloquently describe
how my heart feels like there is a rope tightening around it endlessly,
squeezing the tissue out from between its coils,
stretching the walls thin and slowly strangling the arteries
if you listen to each carefully-selected syllable,
you may begin to understand
why attempting to tell you this myself will only bring me to my knees
it saddens me to know that others have felt so similar and even worse,
enough to write a song about it,
but i am grateful that i do not have to carry this weight alone
so listen, please
and maybe then you'll understand me

Lost in the magic of your voice
I want to forget the sorrows of this world
This is your magic
That it saves me from grief my beloved
This is the magic of your voice
I have to explore the beautiful world my beloved

You are as Delicate as a Rose
As Strong as the Sun
And as Beautiful as the Moon

We walked around
this gray town
and compared ourselves
to dead trees

We're trapped inside
our gray lives
but together we
felt so free

*c.b.

Your rubies lips
Your aquamarine eyes
Your topaz hair
Your diamond skin
Just you are all precious gemstone
