remove all my masks,
look at the eyes behind my hair.
look at the core of my being.
tell me what you see there.
what are my greatest desires?
for what is it that i strive?
i think i know, and you do too
moments with you when i feel alive
tell me you don't get sick of me
like i'm some pesky disease
would you tell me you loved me no matter what?
if i asked? if i said "please"?
i try to escape you like a bad memory
but you're with me wherever i go.
i finally see that you're a part of me
now i finally know.
i wish it weren't true,
but my heart beats "yes"
you're the reason why
fireworks explode in my chest.
