I hear the words that you release from your tongue.
My heart, you still haven't won.
I'm still a skeptic.
Eyes bright like fire…
Exposing the things you conspire.
Behind your eyes are secrets and lies.
Almost cryptic, But not hard to decipher.
Your heart withholds the true intentions of your desire.
I want to love you.
I want to give you my all.
But there's something pulling back.
Preventing me from letting down my wall.
There's a strange feeling that won't let me go.
I'm curious,
I want to know what your hiding deep down within.
I need to know if what you feel for me is genuine.
Before I trust you with my heart,
We need to keep it real from the start.
I don't want to be deceived.
I need to know if you can give love as much as you receive.
Neither of us are perfect,
We both have flaws.
We both have past scars.
Trust should be our foundation.
We can't embark on a new destination with baggage from our past.
If we don't release the pain of yesterday,
our flame will go out fast.
If we can't keep it real with one another,
what is there left to say?
We can depart now with our feelings intact.
Say our goodbyes and go our separate way.
