True
I couldn’t hold back the river from drowning you, but you know I tried
The desperate wave caught your salvation, I kissed when I cried
You held me away from the torment but now you are candid with sins
You held me in the night, too pure to be broken, to real to win
If I were to lie on truth if God may wield pity on those who need
I couldn’t keep you back, your strength engulfed my admiration, to feel this-to feed
Like the rush of the gaze the fragment of desire that fills, I need to protect
You held my blindness in your palm, you held and fed what I wanted to reject
Now you sacrifice yourself to the eyes of the lion and the cage of the infinite
I failed to see your love through but as the look stares across, truth is intimate
I tried to stop you from telling the world, I knew it would destroy you
But like your admission to me, I nor the world can never keep you away from being true
