Slow dancing in a burning room.


"A Beautiful Mess."


You've got the best of both worlds
You're the kind of girl who can take down a man,
And lift him back up again
You are strong but you're needy,
Humble but you're
greedy
And based on your body language,
And shoddy cursive I've been reading
Your style is quite selective,
though your mind is rather
reckless
Well I guess it just suggests
that this is just what
happiness is

Hey, what a beautiful mess this is
It's like picking up trash in dresses

Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you write
Kind of turn themselves into knives

And don't mind my nerve you could call it fiction
But I like being submerged in your contradictions dear
'Cause here we are, here we are

Although you were biased I love your advice
Your comebacks they're quick
And probably have to do with your insecurities
There's no shame in being
crazy,
Depending on how you take these
Words I'm paraphrasing this relationship we're staging


We're still here
What a beautiful mess, this is
I
t's like taking a guess when the only answer is "Yes"

Through, timeless words and priceless pictures
We'll fly like birds not of this earth

And tides they turn and hearts disfigure
But that's no concern when we're wounded together

And we, tore our dresses and stained our shirts
But its nice today. Oh the way it was so worth it.

Bittersweet,
