You're just a weary warrior
Bandaged and bruised
I'm just a simple jester
Laughing so I won't seem so confused
I can't deny this hunger
Every time I catch your eye
And I can't disguise my foolishness
So I won't even try
I'm not usually fumbling over myself
Or stammering what I say
So I hope you don't mind me carrying on this way
I can't deny this hunger
Every time I catch your eye
And I can't disguise my foolishness
So I won't even try
I'm not usually fumbling over myself
Or stammering what I say
So I hope you don't mind me carrying on this way
Chorus:
I didn't mean to be so obvious
About this overload of feeling
But I couldn't keep it all inside
Just out of courtesy to my pride
When it just wasn't worth concealing
Still I didn't mean to be so obvious
About things better left unspoken
And if the only way you'd take me
Is to know that you can break me
Well here I am
Broken
I never thought I'd find myself
Stripped down and exposed
To the elements of your dream
Through my restless head it softly goes
Through the words you seem to sing to me
Draw me underneath your spell
I can try to fight against your power
But I'm not doing very well
You're so beautifully scripted
Fighting your cause
I'm so painfully typical
Grasping at straws
Can you understand this desperate need
Have you felt it before?
Have you laughed at me wondering
Could I be a little more
Chorus
Still I couldn't keep it all inside
And no matter how hard I tried
I was better off revealing
