But I can't stop my heart from believing that your a good man, who just lost his way
My friends tell me get out, please don't stay
But I can't leave when I still have so much left to say
Like how your smile lights up my day
How I stare at your nose loving how it's a bit more crooked, in a cute way
That your touch sets my skin on fire
And how you make my heart believe that my mind is the only liar
That every thought that appears to show the truth of who you are, goes up in flames
Just because, the way you say my name will never leave another's mouth the same
All these reasons hold me back from seeing who truly lays under the mask you hide behind
Just like my broken heart is shielded by all the, "I'm fine's" and other lies
