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…
