You Are Worth Fighting For

Laying here still awake,
not dreaming.
Wondering why my eyes are leaking
I've never opened up to anyone
The way that I've done with you.
It hasn't even been that long girl
But you are worth fighting for.
So, I just want to us to take our time
In getting to know each other
And if you can't handle me,
No one will.

This tear is just hanging on by a thread
The last tear, opened up my heart to you
But at that same moment I started to feel a little dead inside.
Like I just confessed my sins
But in fact, I just needed to cry.

All this pent up anger,
all my pent up fear,
all my pain washing away,
inside of that last tear.

I'm feeling a little scared but also a little free,
safe in your presence, I can finally breathe.
The fresh air you've carried into my life.
The fresh start you've brought to me.
You are my safe haven.
You've given my voice back to me.

I only ever feel safe inside of my own head
and I just hope that you are exactly who you've said.

I fear starting over but with you it comes with ease.
We can talk freely without a doubt but please,
don't make it too easy for me.
For one day,
I can tell you,
you are worth fighting for.
