I catalog these steps now
|
Decisive and intentioned
|
precise and patterned specifically to yours.
|
I'm talented at breathing
|
Especially exhaling
|
So that my chest will rise and fall with yours
|
|
I'm careful not to wake you
|
Fearing conversation
|
It's better just to hold you
|
And keep you pacified
|
I'm talented with reason
|
I cover all the angles
|
I can fail before I ever try
|
|
Try to understand there's an old mistake that fools will make
|
And I'm the king of them, pushing everything that's good away
|
Wont you hold me now (I will not bend I will not break)
|
Wont you hold me now (I will not bend I will not break)
|
|
I am fairly agile
|
I can bend and not break
|
Or I can break and take it with a smile
|
And I am so resilient
|
I recover quickly
|
I'll convince you soon that I am fine
|
|
Try to understand there's and old mistake that fools will make
|
And I'm the king of them, pushing everything that's good away
|
Wont you hold me now (I will not bend I will not break)
|
Wont you hold me now (For you I rise, for you I fall)
|
|
Just hold me close to you, just hold me close to you
|
Just hold me close to you, just hold me close to you, to you
|
|
And try to understand there's and old mistake that fools will make
|
And I'm the king of them, pushing everything that's good away
|
So wont you hold me now?
|
Wont you hold me now?
|
Now, now, now, now, now
|
