Truly madly deeply
I believe my widened eyes
.
Finally a reason to believe
Something my own eyes until this time declined to see
Knew there was a reason why I ventured into dream
Knew that life essentially made sense to me asleep
Threw so many fights
For I felt desperately weak
Didn’t seem the time for signing testimony bleak
Mightily delightedly relieved
Finally a reason to believe
.
Unless my eyes deceived
There was no need left to proceed
Nothing left to lose but blues
Tall grass no longer green
Kicked off both my shoes
To feel the earth beneath my feet
Beauty had been rumoured in-between
(Truly madly deeply
I kept heart)
.
Knew there was a reason why I ventured into dream
Knew the seasons fleeting were retreating to be seen
Knew the sun and moon were keeping secrets from the stars
Truly madly deeply
I kept heart
(Truly madly deeply
I kept heart)
.
Knew there was a reason why I ventured into dream
Knew the seasons fleeting were retreating to be seen
Knew the sun and moon were keeping secrets from the stars
Truly madly deeply
I kept heart
.
Nothing left to lose that hadn’t formerly been taken
For all my blindest faith
I had been shaken to foundations
.
Precious little destiny to question lean of fate
Wallowing in hollow of self-hatred
Swallowing the pride that eyes of sorrow bid decline
Dropping to my knees to cry a river red to testify
Death’s design resembled mine
Albeit more intensified
Every teardrop bled supplied polite request to death defy
.
Knew there was a reason why I ventured into dream
Knew the seasons fleeting were retreating to be seen
Knew the sun and moon were keeping secrets from the stars
Truly madly deeply
I kept heart
(Truly madly deeply
I kept heart)
.
Knew there was a reason why I ventured into dream
(Ventured into dream)
Knew the seasons fleeting were retreating to be seen
(Retreating to be seen)
Knew the sun and moon were keeping secrets from the stars
(Secrets from the stars)
Truly madly deeply
I kept heart
.
Learned to love yours truly through my artistry
Learned to overrule self-hatred
Bid to swell cathartic bleed
.
Finally a reason to believe
(Finally a reason to believe)
Something my own eyes reclined excitedly to see
Every soul entitled in my keep made eyes at me
Bled a tear sincerely to delight the tide inviting me
Suddenly my arteries
Were sculpting timeless masterpiece
Suddenly my heart felt less defeated
(Truly madly deeply
I kept heart)
Lovingly I ventured into dream through tall grass green
Compelled to tell each soul that they would always be a part of me
.
Knew there was a reason why I ventured into dream
(Ventured into dream)
Knew the seasons fleeting were retreating to be seen
(Retreating to be seen)
Knew the sun and moon were keeping secrets from the stars
(Secrets from the stars)
Truly madly deeply
I kept heart
(Truly madly deeply
I kept heart)
.
Knew there was a reason I proceeded blindly leaping
Sun and moon confiding of the secrets in their keeping
Suddenly the stars resemble diamonds in the skies
Truly madly deeply
I believe my widened eyes
.
