Jovial
Inspired by Shawn Mendes’ songs: Stitches and Never Be Alone
Am I feeling jovial
Or am I in denial?
All along, you were lost and found
One day, we’ll be safe and sound
I saw what was missing in my soul
You left me sore to the skull…you left me quite a fool…
Am I in denial
Or am I feeling jovial?
I will not stop calling you my lover
As long as we have one another
Headstrong inside your beloved stitches…
Mind is longing to belong with your abysses…
I often wish I could earn all of your kisses
I’m sorry if I’m too much to ask in my distresses
As long as we have one another,
I will not stop calling you my lover
Am I feeling jovial
Or am I in denial?
Am I feeling jovial
Or am I in denial?
I saw what was handsome in your beautiful…
You left me sore to the touch…
It’s the scars that make you mine and such
You’re tearing me apart from the start
My heart is never alone like a jovial work of art…
Am I in denial
Or am I feeling jovial?
I will not stop calling you my lover
As long as we have one another
Headstrong inside your beloved stitches…
Mind is longing to belong with your abysses…
I often wish I could earn all of your kisses
I’m sorry if I’m too much to ask in my distresses
As long as we have one another,
I will not stop calling you my lover
Am I feeling jovial
Or am I in denial?
Am I in denial
Or am I feeling jovial?
I’ve been sore for so long now
I can’t stand the ache and sorrow anyhow…
Somehow, I feel like giving in to the pain inside, not to mention the strife
You’re bringing me back to life with your words that hurt me like a knife
Am I feeling jovial
Or am I in denial?
I’m trying to stand tall
But, I’m falling out of sorts
I’m trying to get on the ball,
But I’m tripping on my shorts
I’m trying to stand tall
But, I’m falling out of sorts
I’m trying to get on the ball,
But I’m tripping on my shorts
I’m trying to stand tall
But, I’m falling out of sorts
I’m trying to get on the ball,
But I’m tripping on my shorts
Am I in denial
Or am I feeling jovial?
I will not stop calling you my lover
As long as we have one another
Headstrong inside your beloved stitches…
Mind is longing to belong with your abysses…
I often wish I could earn all of your kisses
I’m sorry if I’m too much to ask in my distresses
As long as we have one another,
I will not stop calling you my lover
Am I feeling jovial
Or am I in denial?
Just so that you know, it shows —
You’re not to blame
For the bitterness you hold so close
You shouldn’t feel shame
For the happiness that glows
Inside of you and I
Inside you and I
Am I feeling anxious for you
Or am I in denial too?
Am I feeling jovial
Or am I feeling less than tall?
Or I must be jovial and in denial…
