War of Hearts

damaged yet perfect
they see you for something pretty
sexy gets attention
but no one sees beneath
you swear you're sick
a flower beaten by the rain
no one is a fucking saint

hold my hand
maybe we can start finding
what happiness looks like
and if not
what is there to lose?
too scared to fall
I won't judge
if you want to hate my guts
call me a perverted fuck
God knows I've been called worse

this doesn't need to be a war
maybe we're both too drunk
but I see you
and it is so much more beautiful
than your body ever could be
so hey, I'll walk home alone
it will kill me
and I know it will kill you too
would be a shame
to let pride get in the way
