If you take me for granted
dismiss my feelings
think that I’ll always be there
no matter what you do
or how you act
if you think passive love is enough
you will lose me
it’s as simple as that
Feelings shaped into words, inspired by moments
If you take me for granted
dismiss my feelings
think that I’ll always be there
no matter what you do
or how you act
if you think passive love is enough
you will lose me
it’s as simple as that
People rush to buy houses, marry and have children
As if racing against time
some pre-ordained script
Then years later lament the fact they
“don’t have any time for myself”
and all the responsibilities they walked into
suddenly feel like crushing burdens
much like the albatross in
The Rime of The Ancient Mariner
Truth is. There is no rush. Not really
You are only rushing against yourself
Your peers and society
Enjoy this time for you
Enjoy this time with you
Because chances are
one day you’ll wish it back.
My passion can’t contain itself anymore
Either you feed me
Or I’ll have to feed myself
My blood can’t run this deeply
Without oxygen
My love can’t run this deeply
Without flames
She’s a dreamer
Gems and whispers and liquid gold
Don’t underestimate how far she’ll go
To live a life that’s extraordinary
I will fight for love
But I won’t beg
If you are a backseat passenger
Be ready to get off at any time
A driver can’t do the whole journey alone
We built sandcastles
Only to turn them into a city
We made paper planes
Only to fly the world
We crafted dreamcatchers
Only to fulfil the dreams they held
We played make believe
Only for it to become a reality
Thank you for believing in me
Even when I don’t believe in myself
