Would you stay with me even if...
Even if we weren't even, I mean
Would you love me even when I no longer say it?
When my fears consume me and I run
When I lose myself to insecurities not cured
When my will falters and I seek escape
Could you really handle my inconsistency
Coz I won't lie to you, I'm an emotional pendulum
Never the same long enough to enjoy
I'll twist your thoughts and turn your heart
I'll test your patience to the extreme, and then some
I'll beg to be the center of your universe
To be the sun to your solar system and yet
I'll treat you like Pluto, unsure of what you are
Yet refusing to let you leave my orbit.
I can be selfless, selflessly selfish
I'll love you like no other and show you the rarest wonders
I'll win you, mind, body and soul
I'll bury them up so deep down, you'd drown before you reach them
I'll embed myself so deeply into you, I'll echo always
Even in my absence I'll echo, everything and nothing
I'll give you an addiction like no other
All so you won't leave me, so you'll love me always
I'll kiss you so your world stops and stares
I'll hold you to tight, we'll become one
Just so that when I let go, you'll fall apart
So that when I withhold my touch, you'll crumble
So that I'll own every bit of you, obsessively so.
So would you love me still?
Would you stay with me still, with all these truths exposed
I fear you wouldn't
So these truths will remain and I'll love you innocently
