ronja lee - lover lyrics
you look at me like i’m a statue of a
god
that was sculpted from white marble by an artist long ago
and it’s been hundreds of years now, and my surface has been weathered
though i’m chipped and though i’m broken, you still say i’m beautiful
and you say that i resided in a temple built by royals
i’m no longer on that altar, but you look at me the same
though i lack my former glory, and my surface has been weathered—
though i’m chipped and though i’m broken, you still say i’m beautiful
you look at me like i’m an angel from the bible
like i’m holy, but i’m shaken
you know of the pain i’ve seen
“be not afraid”, it would mean nothing to you
you’d approached me even if my form was engulfed by the flame
and though my wings are broken, my eyes covered by a blindfold
you still hold me, the all+knowing, and you whisper just my name
you look at me like i’m a spirit of the forest, like i’m wild and unpredictable—
like i cannot be tamed
and though the vines have grown up and over my whole body
though my form has become muddy, you still day i’m beautiful
and though i’m sickly now, and my branches have been broken—
you still nurture the new growth;
plant a sapling in my hair
you look at me like i’m made of flesh and muscle
like i’m real, and like i’m tangible—
like i’m a person once again
and though my bones are aching, and my scars they have reopened
you just keep me, hold me closer—
and tell me i’m beautiful
i see you; like a statue made of marble. like an angel from the bible, like a spirit from the woods
like a glimmer in the desert, like a storm on the horizon
like the moonlight through my window, like a star still visible
and i know that you’re just human; made of flesh and blood like i am
but the stardust that we’re made of makes your skin seem to sparkle
and i know that we’re but mortals, and i know how much i love you, and i know that we’re each other’s, won’t you hold me till i crumble
won’t you hold me till i crumble
won’t you hold me till i crumble
won’t you hold me till i crumble
won’t you hold me till i crumble
won’t you hold me till i crumble
won’t you hold me till i crumble
won’t you hold me till i crumble
