The world can be a crazy place girl
And we’re human so we make mistakes girl
Sometimes it’s hard to see the light
But when you hold me close I start to feel alright
And the pillars of this world are shaking
So it’s time for us to start reshaping
The future is now ours to make
So put your fears away, no time to hesitate
I’d like to start again with a vision that is clear
Cause mistakes can be severe when we let fear interfere
We’ve been broken for so long that what is right often feels wrong
Makes it hard to move along, transform from ducklings into swans
I’ve been gnawing on the ropes, a muted mouse in search of growth, hoping I can find my voice if I commit to better choices
So further up and further in
It’s only past the edge where we can start again
Cause the world can be a crazy place girl
And we’re human so we make mistakes girl
Sometimes it’s hard to see the light
But when you hold me close I start to feel alright
Sometimes it’s hard to see the light
And when you’re far away every choice seems a mistake
Cause I’m just trying to recreate the joyful feeling that you gave
Without you here it’s just charades, a pantomiming game
I try to love, it’s all in vain, there is no love without your name
And I should know better than to build here in the sand
When I know I can’t withstand a single storm and stay on land
I’m out here drowning in the sea, hoping you’ll wade out to me and intervene
Cause the world can be a crazy place, but when you’re near I feel at peace
Still I make nothing but mistakes, whenever I forget your face
The world can be a crazy place girl
And we’re human so we make mistakes girl
Sometimes it’s hard to see the light
But when you hold me close I start to feel alright
And the pillars of this world are shaking
So it’s time for us to start reshaping
The future is now ours to make
So put your fears away, no time to hesitate

Hold up, hold up, Press your body close on me
I need, to feel, all the love you’ve got for me
No sense in holding back
When we’re both craving love like that
Hold up, wait a minute scroll back, I need to like that girl
a clever name, a high match, and I really like her hair
Send a message saying “madame would you like to go,
Out to LACMA, grab a coffee, maybe we could catch a show
I’m growing tired of just drinking on the weekends, when you’re drinking every women that you’re meeting seems the real thing
I need a lover who needs bookshelves for her paperbacks
No thats not a euphemism, I just like to read a lot
Or maybe it is cause why not both? I’m feeling greedy now
Hungry for words, hungry for worth, I aim for pleasing now
I’ve been withdrawn, been writing songs, need a distraction now, you’re looking good, I’m feeling shook, my hearts contracting
When I can’t connect with quality, I connect with quantity
Avoiding the monotony, I’m just speaking honestly
They stay the night once, they’ll stay the night twice
Then hope for invites cause I’m their new vice cause
My mouths addictive girl, it never tells a lie
Gets so much exercise on stage or deeper in your thighs
I’ll never ever compromise cause quitting is for other guys
Won’t ever hit the lights cause I like to look in your eyes
I’ll never judge you for desires that you choose to share
And if I’m capable I’ll do my best to take you there
We’re just two people who didn’t want to spend our nights alone
We’re just two people who embrace life and it make it our own
We’re just two people but tonight lets be a symphony
Play cosmic alchemy turn sin into divinity
I’ll never feel ashamed for loving you the ways I do
I’ll never feel ashamed for speaking all the hidden truths
Hold up, hold up, Press your body close on me
I need, to feel, all the love you’ve got for me
No sense in holding back
When we’re both craving love like that
Hold up , swipe right, super like, I need to love this girl
She’s got that attitude like she can break then shape the world
I fall in love whenever women show they’re strong as fuck
That’s just because I crave an equal who can match my love
Been out here playing girl but thats just cause you took so long
Got tired of waiting girl, I had to go and chase some songs
Just like Jiraiya girl I had to go and see the world
And treat these girls right cause their populations underserved
But if you’re ready now I think that I should take you home
And show you all the ways I’ve dreamed of making you my own
I hope you’re ready to stay up until the break of dawn
I take this serious, Plus Ultra, always go beyond

Every time I see your face I’m filled with joy
You make me want to sing a song and fill my voice - with love
Cause I’m reminded that there’s beauty here
And I find it so easy to see when you’re near - I know
That you’re committed to the life you chose
To feed love to Gods children and then help it grow - and I
Have faith in your work and your dreams and goals
So I’ve been trying to let go my flow, surrender and give up control
But I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t love you still
And I’d be blind if I couldn’t see that you still love me too
Why do we pretend we only want to be just friends
When our relationship transcends these walls we never should have built
And I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t dream of you
Though I’ve been trying to move on, it doesn’t ever work
All these other lovers just uncovered what I tried to hide
I buried this love deep inside, like Peter I denied 3 times
That every time I see your face I start to glow
That joy runs through my body till it overflows - I think
About a future and I want to grow
So that I can be the one to help you build a home - I know
That you’re afraid, you think that I distract
From your mission as a Christian if you grow attached - But I
Will be supportive of your dreams and goals
And step into the background and give up control, to God
Cause I’d be lying if I said he didn’t lead me here
He’s filled with love for you, he always whispers in my ear
But it’s still hard on me cause his voice isn’t always clear
And I feel fucking stupid every time you go and disappear
Yes I still curse because I’ve always had a love for words
I don’t discriminate when emphasizing nouns and verbs
In fact I don’t discriminate at all and that will never change
I’ve been holding back because I’m worried church has hate ingrained
And if I walk through those doors you all should know that I will speak the truth
Cause they’ve been bringing shame upon his name and there is no excuse
Love your neighbors, feed the poor, and heal the sick, he’s very clear
But they’re too busy worshiping these charlatans and profiteers
I know that I’m not blameless, I’ve been selfish, filled with arrogance
Thought if I found fame that I could build on my inheritance
Look I’ve learned the errors of my ways, that I am not so strong
And I can’t save a single soul from sadness when I’m on my own
Not even my own, look how I wilt when I’m alone
We’re meant to love each other, that is how you build a home
In you I see my equal, we just need that cornerstone
To help us build a strong foundation that can stand against the storm
I did not come here to woo you, to argue for your hand
You’re strong enough without me, trust, I fully comprehend
You’re committed to your choice which is to help Gods love expand
I really think that I could help you but if not I understand
But you should know that when I see your face I’m filled with joy
You make me want to sing a song and fill my voice - with love
Cause I’m reminded that there’s beauty here
And I find it so easy to see when you’re near - I know
That you’re committed to the life you chose
To feed love to Gods children and then help it grow - and I
Have faith in your work, in your dreams and goals
So I’m trying to let go my flow, surrender, and give up control
