Give It a Chance

So you value me as friend But I see you’re having second thoughts again Why can’t I be an exception One that’s immune to your old perceptions You’re trying to see something that isn’t there But you already know that isn’t fair For what you see before you is unlike any other You’ve seen the outside, do you choose not to look further Step closer and look into my soul For what you see, isn’t a black hole It is the purest kind of light One that would keep you warm on the coldest of nights To trust isn’t a must; it’s all up to you Is to let me in really a sin If so, I must go What are you so afraid of…betrayal Take a deep breathe….exhale For I am a saint And best believe you can take that to the bank So what would it take to change your mind For you to see my heart is kind Will you take my hand and be my friend Or have we come to a dead end
