Chain Me Down
I wrote this one about darkcornerinthecloset. I got to use one of my favorite metaphors in this one.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Explain this feeling I get inside
‘cause I was told love involved butterflies.
I’m down on my knees begging you please
to feel the same about me.
This stabbing pain fills my heart when I hide how I feel today
And I can’t even find the words to say.
[chorus] If I can’t have your love
Chain me down to the ocean floor
So I can drown and hurt no more.
You’re more beautiful than a starlit sky
At twenty past midnight.
For once I wanna fall in love
And land gently on my feet
‘cause every other time I’ve landed
Face-down in concrete.
[chorus] x2
I hide these three words I long to say
And even if you walk away
I guess I’ll love you anyway [x3]
[chorus]
Hide these three words I long to say
[chorus]
I still love you anyway.
