Despite everything Consumed by darkness Consumed by hate I am being consumed by everything That I have been through I’ve fallen down so far away And in the dark I want to stay But with a gallant hand you picked me up And serenaded my thoughts with alluring words You convinced me that I was more than nothing And you tell me that I’m beautiful You put me on this pedestal And treat me like I’m something more I long for your grasp And the way you make me feel inside With every gentle touch And the way that you embrace me You bring my soul to life Stop telling me that I deserve more And all you are is a piece of nothing Don’t tell me that you aren’t worth it Because I think you are Don’t tell me how to feel Don’t tell me where to go I don’t want my thoughts of you to dissipate I just want to be with you Because you mean just as much to me as I mean to you Just lay here with me forever And never let me go I can’t stand to be with out you Despite everything that I’ve been through I want you to know this now That you aren’t an average Joe Just because you say that you f’ed up Doesn’t mean that you’re worth nothing So hold me tight And don’t let go I can’t stand to be with out you Despite everything that I have gone through |
