and i'll bleed roses for you

you and me baby we’re something special
but special has always scared me

you know i’m hurt from hands that weren’t as gentle as yours will be
but they all started gentle and i’m waiting for the day you lose that careful touch

you have a power to hurt me, a power i didn’t mean to give you
but you have it anyway and i’ve never been more terrified

you could break me with your words, easily and effortlessly
but i’m still here waiting for it to come, i’ll let it come

i tried so hard to keep distance
but now i’m buying flowers and you’re waiting for the day i say i’m ready for this

but baby, that day may never come
