Time and time again I don’t want to tell you that I care.
I’m afraid I’ll chase you away, I never meant to scare.
There are times I believe that I could just be your friend.
But I can carry that for so long before it comes to a tragic end.
It’s been ages since you pushed me off the edge.
I've been falling for a while now and I’m about to hit a ledge.
I land feet first not knowing the damage that’s been done.
But there’s an audience here from far and wide they’ve come.
I've fallen for you and I’m still standing on my own two feet.
My feelings growing inside me can bypass simple defeat.
The audience looks up and claps.
Maybe I’m winning.
Maybe I’ve the upper hand, perhaps.
You stare from a distance and remain in silence.
Who knew the battle for your heart would be so violent?
Time and time again I wouldn’t tell you that I cared.
I stood there time and again broken, frozen, and impaired.
But things have changed and a war has been waged.
You pushed me here and I’m here to stay.
I’m going to take another leap and just come out and say.
I’m no longer just falling for you.
That time has passed.
I’m here to teach you that I’ve fallen for you
—a master class.
These simple words may prove too much.
But I’m taking a final leap of my own as such.
To say from this ledge that I love you more than anything.
I’m here to stay, you are my constant, my joy, my everything.
— I’m in love with you.
