Lyric

[Gently tracing the fragments of a broken heart...]

Hunched over in the corner of the classroom floor

I’d grown used to being lonely, locking every door

"I’m fine," I said, with a voice I tried to steel

But inside, it felt like I was losing everything real

These feelings I couldn't tell a single soul

You took them in, making me feel whole

Without asking why, you just let them be

A warmth was there, right next to me

I knew I shouldn't fall in love, I knew it from the start

But why does your smile keep tightening my heart?

Beyond the tears, I finally realized the view

This is real love, and it’s leading me to you

The dreams I scribbled in the margins of my book

The faded colors of the daily paths I took

Everything changed the moment that we met

A world of brilliance I’ll never forget

The bullying, the pain, the scars from my past

They started to fade with the words that you cast

Because of you, I can finally say

"I’m okay," at the end of the day

I wasn't supposed to fall in love, I knew the cost

But in your straightforward kindness, I was lost

You rescued me, more than you’ll ever know

I won't lie anymore, I’m letting it show

Hey, can you hear me?

I’m in love with you

A "Punishment Game" was how this love began

But it’s turning into something beyond any plan

Until the day I can tell you everything, the truth and the lie

I just want to be smiling, right by your side

It’s not that I "chose" to fall for you, you see

I just couldn't help it, you’re everything to me

Because you give me a reason to live and to stay

I want to protect this feeling, come what may

I want to say it out loud, clear and true:

"I... I am in love with you."

Even if the beginning was a lie

This love—is the only thing that's real
