My Beginning

For years I thought that I hated
The way you'd look at me like I was naked
But now that I'm bare, laid out my flaws
You look at me like I'm the prettiest of all

Strangers it felt like, never put a thought to my head
Of how you'd be right
Destiny plays a funny game
Messing with my head
I'm paralyzed

Now that we've grown
Staring at the sky, all the stars above
Living their lives
That could be us but I've got trust issues
That could be us but I'm covered in scar tissue
Used to think you'd be the end of me
But you were just my beginning

Feels like a century since the fall
Thought we could've had it all
But time twists fate, it wasn't in our hands
Walking a tightrope with you at the end
Chasing a daydream that was never in sight
Gave up hope trying every night
Just to see you in my dreams
Wishing you could be my reality

Strangers it felt like, never put a thought to my head
Of how you'd be right
Destiny plays a funny game
Messing with my head
I'm paralyzed

Now that we've grown
Staring at the sky, all the stars above
Living their lives
That could be us but I've got trust issues
That could be us but I'm covered in scar tissue
Used to think you'd be the end of me
But you were just my beginning
(You were just my beginning, beginning, beginning)

Now that we've grown
Staring at the sky, all the stars above
Living their lives
That could be us but I've got trust issues
That could be us but I'm covered in scar tissue
Used to think you'd be the end of me
But you were just my beginning
