I love you more than you know
You think you feel me
I feel you
I haven’t seen your face
Or again fell in disgrace
Since the moment I ran away
I came up from nothing
Just power & grace
I loved you more
Than I could ever face
I wanted it all
I wanted the crown
I wanted the rumors
To stop taking me down
I wanted you to say it
Before I ever said it
I wanted the schemers
To be dead in the ground
But they rose
And I fell
You chose
Unwell
I froze
Still—
I love you.
Maybe one day
You would say sorry
Maybe one day
You’d make it all right
Maybe one day
But not tonight
I didn’t need you to save me
You thought I did so you waited
For me to ask–
You didn’t see my pride mirrored in you
It couldn’t last
I’ll never know what is true
You came from everything
Your money & class
You loved me more
But love never lasts
You wanted it all
You wanted my youth
You wanted the rumors
To stop making up truth
You wanted me to say it
Before you ever said it
You wanted my beauty
To smother your face
But you rose
And I fell
You chose
Unwell
Still—
You love me
