You are a garden of roses and daisies,
And I am a thicket of thorns
You are the bright lights that wake me up daily,
And I am a battered flag, black, tattered, and torn
Now you are my blue sky and my grey ocean
But I am your invisible wall to lean on
You are my one true love, my heart's devotion
And I?
I am the girl you've known all along.
You act like a man who needs somebody
I act like a girl who's broken and hurt
You don't see that you're so lovely
I don't see the way you make me burn
You're an avalanche of pain
And I'm a starstruck lover in the fast lane
You think you're alone
But you've got a follower
And you're so in the zone,
I wonder why I bother
Then I force myself to remember
That when I wish I weren't alive your smile gives me a reason
And even if we're not together,
The crimson shades of your cheeks are enough to make me fall again
You are the wind in a bonfire
I'm the rain that kills the party
You are the one who was hurt by a liar
And I'm the one who hurts her own body
But I can see through your sleeves
I hear the blacktop pounding of your fantasy
Now smile and wave, then turn out the light
Pretend you're okay and pray to the night
You think you're alone
But you've got a follower
And you're so in the zone
I wonder why I bother
The way you laugh puts me in a dream
I wish I could find your heart
You try to hide them but I can see
The crimson shades of your scars
You have a heart that's covered in ice
I have a heart that's burning
If I melt your walls can I save your life?
I guess not, sorry, I'm only learning
You are a garden full of twigs and vines
I'm only a rosebud that's starting to grow
If I get better can I call you mine?
If I promise to love you can I call you my own?
You think you're alone
But you've got a follower
And you're so in the zone
I wonder why I bother
But I can't help my heart falling for you
And I can't help it when my lips call your name
What a surprise when I found you loved me too
And you kissed me so hard all I saw were crimson shades
