They Can Finally Flow
I've been holding this act for 10 years
No boy there to hold me tight
No family to share my feelings
No friends to play with
But one day you barge into my heart
But what you did with it took me by surprise
It wasn't stomped on, but tendered
You've sown the holes in my heart
You've broken the dam in my eyes
I not alone anymore
And for the first time my skin felt warm
My body felt like the most beautiful delicate flower
I wrapped my arms around you
And for the first times in ten years
I can finally let my tears flow
