Vulnerability Has a Steady Pace
So this is it I'm falling apart
I guess that's the real beauty in art
There's a difference between falling and crumbling down
This time my brain is around
The fear of letting my mask come off
The fear of my face making someone scoff
I thought I could act like I normally do
Then love hit me out of the blue
Blue sapphires are worth more than gold
We start to question what we are told
I'd like to say I’m just shedding skin
But the truth is I don't wish anyone the jail I’m in
I know my brain and heart can be one in the same
They work together to fight my pain
Because love hit me in the face
Vulnerability has a steady pace
