Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh snap! I think I love you
I think I want to devote my whole entire existence to you
I feel so brand new, but I don't want to lose myself
I just don't want to lose the things that I had before I met you
[Verse 2]
My world revolves around you
My lips were made to devote their whole entire existence to you
All I want to do is get lost inside of you
But I don't want to lose the person I was before I met you
[Bridge]
Before I met you, I built a tower (Castle)
I built it for myself
With my own two hands
Bleeding as I placed each stone
And planted every seed, I planted every single seed
I used the water from my tears
I watched it grow slowly
[Verse 3]
Oh snap! I think you love me
I think you want to devote your whole entire existence to me
Never in my life has a guy cared so much for me
And shown it with actions rather than empty grandiose words
[Verse 4]
Oh shit! I think you love me
I think I've shown you all of the cruel and nasty parts of me
But you still haven't left
Is it abject fidelity?
Or could it be that love is more than just fantasy to you?
[Verse 5]
Oh snap! What has the time done?
We used to have fun
But now I can't even bear talking to you
I feel so run down, and I don't know what to do
With all the resentment I built up inside over the years
[Verse 6]
I know I tried to change you
I tried to mold you into my own creation
I'm ashamed
I wasted so much time
I'm so sorry I hurt you
I just hope there's a way for me to repair the damage I've done
[Verse 7]
Oh snap! I think I love you
But love is different
It's not at all what I had fantasized
All I wanna do is to sit here beside you
Put my nose in your neck
Is to feel the warmth of your hand as it holds mine
