it wasn't concrete, it was an artdaytime, your hands around my hips
are way better than the words from your lips
too afraid to be weak sometimes
need to be strong to got your back all timeshard to be your strength when i am weak
tough to be your happy pill cause i always get sick
building home around your shoulders to cry on
but you'll say "you're overthinking it, move on"i am not allowed to be sad and anxious
that's why when i'm okay i feel pretentious
marked the spot of this blind optimism
i only love you is my defense mechanismfell in love in this unfamiliar living room
uncertain, sometimes i'm a face of doom
grasp your hands in this dark situation
you're enough with a quite harsh affection
