If I held a candle to your heart,
Examined every little part,
To understand each little beat,
Every murmur so discrete,
It pains you to expose the sides,
You push away and try to hide,
We both have pieces of our past,
Buried deep and built to last.
Our embrace makes me feel right,
Let's kiss when we begin to fight,
I hope this lasts forever now,
And that we make it through somehow.

Maybe that was a bad move. Now I guess I've let you in. I asked you to join. Let the trouble begin. You already know me. Better than you should. But there're a few secrets I kept.
One year later, look at us now. Two messed up minds coming together as one. I swear I never thought this day would come, where I'd realize that I lost myself and see who I've become.
I can't tell you your fortune. Or read you your fate. It's yours to create. I can't heal all your wounds and treat all your sprains. But I'll take your pain.
Tonight you called me your angel Told me you want this to last I've never been anyone's angel I've always been too afraid of my past.
We talk and it's like Coming home To a meal on the table And a roaring fire in the hearth, A picture-postcard, Like we have never been apart And we've always known Each other since forever, Even...
You can have my all. For all it's worth. You can have my height. You can have my girth. You can have my thoughts. You can have my dreams. You can have the stitches. From my seams.
Hold me tight in your embrace, Don't let go: it's not a race. Take my worries, they're too much, Relieve my shoulders with your touch. Skin to skin, material, Our moulding bodies, ethereal.
He says he'll teach me to play,. Guitar, Xbox or life. He says he wants to always stay,. My heart, my bed, my arms. He says it's never been this way,. The feeling, the attraction, the lust.
