Maybe if I had been treated well my whole life
Maybe if I really knew what love is
Maybe if I could only see what you want
Maybe if I was kinder
Maybe if I saw more grey
Maybe if you held me all night long
Maybe if I was yours
Could I see what you see in me?
Could you love me even when I am bloated?
Could you speak up for me?
Could you hold my hand in public
Could you not make a big deal about it?
Could you keep driving my car and loving it?
Could you keep hating the music I listen to?
Perhaps I need this
Perhaps I can get used to this
Perhaps it just takes me sometime
Perhaps it is you that I want
Perhaps I can love you
Perhaps you could love me
Perhaps we could go on vacations together.
It appears that I may be to late
It appears that I hurt you
It appears that I am a fuck up at times
It appears that you call me nice things
It appears that I run through your mind
It appears that I can't get you out of my head
It appears that this could maybe work
Suddenly I am numb
Suddenly I am profound
Suddenly I have had that hammer hit me
Suddenly I know what I want
Suddenly I want a text from you
Suddenly I want to hear your voice
Suddenly I want to hold you in my arms
Awake is what I am
Awake is what I will always be
Awake takes time
Awake takes courage, something I don't often have
Awake takes strength, do you have this?
Awake takes the place of fear
Awake makes me want you even more.
