To hell with my defense and my coping I'm gonna let the floodgates open It took so much to let you in But I let you in Soul starts to leave my chest Lay my weary head to rest Waiting for my only truth I'll dream of when I'll dream with you Offer you my everything But there's nothing left for me to bring So pull me off the dusty shelf And I promise I'll try to fix myself To hell with my defense and my coping I'm gonna let the floodgates open It took so much to let you in But I let you in I never thought I'd find my way out But you can help me find myself now I thought by now I'd fall apart But now you're in my way to start again I tried and tried to fade away But you believed in me and helped me stay I know that I've seen better days But losing you would be my mistake I feel you shining like a star Your glow, it tells me you're not far I knew you'd fit me from the start So take my hand and take my heart To hell with my defense and my coping I'm gonna let the floodgates open It took so much to let you in But I let you in I never thought I'd find my way out But you can help me find myself now I thought by now I'd fall apart But now you're in my way Pourin' over me like rain We'll stay inside, I'll keep you safe The clouds will part, I'll meet you there So don't be sad and don't be scared I feel you shining like a star Your glow, it tells me you're not far I knew you'd fit me from the start So take my hand and take my heart
