Raw & Honest

Story

A night sky drunk with beautiful colours

You look at me with bedroom eyes

We’ve both lost track of time by now

Feeling fragile in your lingering hands

How can I be scared and safe at once

This night is filled with heartache and poetry

Your voice so smooth, your skin so soft

I savor the moment, bursting with anticipation

Your signature is written in permanent ink

Let’s undress our frail souls tonight


This will be all raw and honest

It’s like I can feel it deep in my bones

We’re tangled up, hungry for our lives


Your fingers running through my hair

It’s peace at the end of my day

Forgotten past and an uncertain future

My madness seems tamed for once

I want everything and you want nothing

You’re still an unsolved mystery to me

Living in the moments feels quite magical

Your touch is instantly addicting

Your signature is written in permanent ink

Let’s undress our frail souls tonight


This will be all raw and honest

It’s like I can feel it deep in my bones

We’re tangled up, hungry for our lives


Your brush just makes me shiver

Driven by happiness and by fears

Adoring you with every fiber of my body

My heart goes fast, while my breath goes shallow

Desiring your kiss more than anything

The night is dark and we lay so close

Wondering if you’re in a galaxy far far away

I’d stay up all night if it could give me you
