[Verse 1]
Heart heavy, words caught in my throat
Tongue tied, like my feelings on a tightrope
She a diamond, I’m just coal in the dust
Trying to tell her, but my confidence combusts
[Chorus]
Every time I try, my voice starts to quake
Feeling like a fraud, like my love’s a mistake
She a masterpiece, I’m just a sketch on the wall
Afraid to confess, afraid of the fall
[Verse 2]
She shine brighter than the city at night
Me? A shadow in her glow, outta sight
Trying to build a castle with these shaky hands
But the bricks of my words crumble like sand
[Bridge]
If I could paint her a picture, it’d be pure gold
But my palette’s just ashes, my story untold
I wanna scream it, but my courage retreats
Like a soldier in battle, admitting defeat
[Chorus]
Every time I try, my voice starts to quake
Feeling like a fraud, like my love’s a mistake
She a masterpiece, I’m just a sketch on the wall
Afraid to confess, afraid of the fall
[Verse 3]
Maybe this song’s the way I can show
The love I feel, though I keep it on the low
She the queen to my chaos, a crown in the storm
While I’m just a man trying to keep my heart warm
