It's ok to come along with me
I'm a steady boat in a raging sea
My arms look weak but they're strong enough for you
The silent promises I'll make, the ones you never knew
There's a storm brewing here but we need the rain
You want a life devoid of struggle and free of pain
That ideal thing, I want it too
But more than anything, what I want is you
See how my fingers fit so right with yours?
How your hands perfectly cover the places I was sore?
Your body, a perfect fit to mine
Did you consider any of this a sign?
Take your advice from movies and songs
The ones that stay in your head all day long
Listen to them, they're quite well-versed
Because you've already heard, the blue-eyed ones are the worst.

Unnatural
This pain in my back, I can't figure out what it is
Comes and goes and kills and eases
You're that way too
Engulfed in a flame, all thoughts on you
Can't turn them off, consumed by the fear of burning alive
My skin was melting but I was ok with it
Because when I was the burn, you were the aloe
Before yesterday, you were the sunshine
Warm and inviting and the least thing from scary
But I didn't wear sunscreen or move out of your light
And you're burning me now
You're burning me now
Stinging me now
Melting me now
You're killing me now.

You're burning me now

Melting me now
You're killing me now.
