Everything will lighten up if you're not frightened enough
to step out into life, no matter if the world feels bright or endlessly rough.
On clear days happiness inflates but all too soon drops to the floor
Like a dose of drugs that only lasts enough to make me want more.
A bad taste in the mouth when going to sleep with a sigh and a dissatisfied moan
Because at the end of the day I'm still walking through life alone,
hated and despised, even when surrounded by others and "well grounded."
I'm not sure about much
But I do know that others can't be the ones who dictate our worth, our future our heart.
'Cause looking in the mirror through perfection's eyes only causes self hate.
On the streets beauty is overrated and character underestimated,
Cynical teenagers and arrogant hipsters over generated.
But I can't fear them or me, I need to rearrange my thoughts: why?
Well It aint about blending in or standing out, it's about cause and effect-
I be the cause to project the change
'Cause I found you and you give me reason.
I know you love me for me with all my idiosyncracies,
my super ordinary looks, lack of brains and distaste for reading books.
You will never leave or forsake
and I no longer fear when alone or when I look back on my relationship mistakes.
I love you
Because you loved me first
So I dive into life headfirst, no longer alone.
Fear cannot survive on my bones or my flesh that you call your own.
