about

Written April 18th, 2014.
This song was written for my childhood best friend- he loved me way before I ever loved myself. Thank you for everything.

Now I play this song for all my loved ones, thank you for your love and for sticking around when things get intense. xx

lyrics

Verse 1:
You showed me how, to go bare skin.
You kissed my scars, and I melt right in.
We keep our hearts, in my unsteady hands.
My unsteady hands.

Verse 2:
We went for drives, to settle our things.
Talking for miles, not agreeing.
I broke you down, and infected your pain.
I caused you more pain.

Verse 3:
Your love faded away, while mine grew.
My hands aren't shaking, you know that's true.
I couldn't reach you all this time.
Now we're giving us one more try.

Verse 4:
You still show me how, to go bare skin.
You kiss my scars, and I melt right in.
We keep our hearts, in our steady hands.
In our steady hands.
