more than a lyric Lyrics

I'm usually so misunderstood

Feel defeated every time

I've tried

I stay bottled up

Don't give in too much

Fight my battles

On my own at night

Everybody's interested

When I keep my distance

I swore I'd never love again

But with you it feels different

Want you to be

More than a lyric

Not just a phrase that I

Put in a song

To describe what I'm feeling

A secret I clothe in a word metaphor

That I don't want to deal with

Don't want to hide from reality

Under a melody

I wish you were hearing

Oh I'm begging

I'm praying I don't treat you like a lyric

Cause I have a tendency

To make everyone

The subtle ways that you

Keep me safe I'm already

Yours in my head

How you

Never let go when I

Push away

You give what it takes

To bring me back

This time around

It's hard for me to keep my distance

You're feeling like solid ground

So I'm not scared of commitment

Want you to be

More than a lyric

Not just a phrase that I

Put in a song

To describe what I'm feeling

A secret I clothe in a word metaphor

That I don't want to deal with

Don't want to hide from reality

Under a melody

I wish you were hearing

Oh I'm begging

I'm praying I don't treat you like a lyric

Cause I have a tendency

To make everyone a lyric

Oh

If it's you if it's you if it's you

I don't want to pretend

Cause if it's you if it's you if it's you

I never want it to end
