[Verse 1]
What will happen
When the excitement comes to end
The arguments darkly descend
Your multiple doubts start to blend?
What will happen
When the problems start arising
We're no longer mesmerising
And you begin your despising?
[Chorus 1]
See me as I am
For all of my unending faults
See me as I am
For all of my infinite flaws
See everything I am
Because when you do
You won't want to stay
And I'll let you turn away
Yes, I'll let you walk away
I'll let you run away
[Verse 2]
Just a little petrified
Myself, I fully reinvent
Attempt to ward off the torment
For it to end in malcontent
Oh-so slightly terrified
That all of it will go to waste
Despite how slow we might have paced
And all our memories, erased
[Chorus 1]
[Bridge]
Even though I know I won't remain the same
I've heard love is just a losing game
There's a reason why it's called falling
Don't want it to be unbearably galling
So strange that it contorts and changes
Tearing and twisting so much it deranges
[Chorus 2]
See me as I am
For all of my unending faults
See me as I am
For all of my infinite flaws
See everything I am
And I will not blame you
After all of my foibles, you observe
When you turn away
I'll let you walk away
I'll let you run away
Because that's exactly
What I deserve
