Being real is rare
And your rare is real
That's why they all stare
And i am no exception - just to be clear
I am what they call an introvert
So silently staring is how i flirt
Irresistible - i know
But why would we hurry? Let's take it slow
Build something before we start the main show
I need to be friends before i can call you a lover
Let's do that little dance and get to know each other
I live my life on a paper
It didn't matter if i didn't write about it later
And being with you is something i write about in advance
That's how badly i want it - if that makes any sense
The jury is still out on whether or not am i a man of my word
But i can tell you right now that the words are what makes me
Not the best advertisement to be sure but at least it's honest
I tell you everything - I'll name every skeleton in my closet
Because i lived through enough to know that the cards need to be on the table
If we aim to create anything of value - something stable
So tell me the shittiest thing you've ever done
And i'll tell you mine
And if neither of us decides to run - from the darkness of the other
Then perhaps we could shine together
People in our lives
At first they all seem like stars and then they turn into a temporary hosts
Which left my skin full of scars and filled my soul with ghosts
So if i am intersted in you then you must be special - because i already gave up on most
But still i am looking for that one person with whom i could toast
To our shared future together
To being student as well as teacher - to one another
To standing side by side no matter the wheather
To our decision to try to be better people
Than we were yesterday
I think that is the only way
How something so suicidal as a romantic relationship could ever work
So tell me - should i open the cork?
