I wouldn’t want to escape the pain
Be it the inevitable destination
Of my love’s flame
I could settle for nothing less
Than your deepest truth
Even if your final judgement
Could be absolute
I don’t want your mercy, pity, or false kindness
And no, I did not suffer from blindness
For I’d do it again, and I’d do it in defiance
So, let this gift of pain you gave me
Forever define us
You’ll always be there to me
For having left your mark
For your existence gave me hope
Like a match in the dark
This is no protest nor judgement
I just want to tell you
If you think me dishonest
You’ve no clue what I’ve been through
I wouldn’t want to escape the pain
Be it the inevitable destination
Of my love’s flame
So, let this gift of pain you gave me
Forever define us
