Inspired by Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller. About being afraid to experience intimacy and really be known.
Love You Anyway
February 14, 2008
you don't want to open up
neither do i
you don't want to drop your mask
i'm so content to hide
cuz what if it all came crashing down
if you really knew me, could you love me
if you really knew me, would you turn and walk away?
cuz i've done things and said things and thought things i'm ashamed to mention
could you look past all of that
and love me anyway, would you say, i love you anyway
i want to be intimate
but only on my own terms
i don't want the commitment
cuz i don't want to get hurt
like if it all came crashing down
if you really knew me, could you love me
if you really knew me, would you turn and walk away?
cuz i've done things and said things and thought things i'm ashamed to mention
could you look past all of that
and love me anyway, would you say, i love you anyway
