It's Always Been You

Hopeful illusion, in you I take shelter

Relentlessly searching, I roam, never settle

I crave understanding, belonging, coexistence

You offer it all, and you don't ask for distance

You're loud and fast-paced, you're packed, sometimes angry

I dive in your night, your moods are uncanny

Loudness means alive, no doubt you're evolving

Into a new self, you keep on transforming

You're a blessing, you're a curse

You are chaos, I'm immersed in you, in you

When I drown, I am saved

By the power you possess

It's you, it's always been you

I reckon your nerve, your heart, your desire

I want to believe, you'll never conspire

Against who I am, what I do, what I look for

Instead you'll be true and this love will be fruitful

You're a blessing, You're a curse

You are chaos, I'm immersed in you, in you

With my demons, you are brave

In the darkness, I'm preserved

By you, it's always been you

Determination to make my own stand,

And implication too

I want to keep both feet on the ground,

And lift my head up high

Hopeful illusion, in you I take shelter

Relentlessly searching, I roam, never settle

I crave understanding, belonging, coexistence

You offer it all, and you don't ask for distance
