Wish I could read that mind
What you see when you look in my eyes
But I always get so lost in yours
I forget about the lies I should search for

You don't like the idea of forever
For you it's nothing more than a curse
I hope my touch is enough to calm you
All the lines on your back that I drew

You know I'm not here to hurt you, baby
It's only jokes when I call you silly
You're breaking your own rules for me
But nothing will shatter here, I promise

You don't even feel my heart in your hands
It's been so numb, must be weightless
You know so well what it had to endure
To hurt it the same, you should be so cruel

I'm sorry I can't give my all yet
My fears are here to hold me back
Although I don't know your intentions
With you, I would try my next forever
