Illuminate

If I refused, would you take me for a coward?
Call me crying in the shower, but I wasn’t scared
At least none of you know how it feels, so fractious and empowered
I was but a delicate flower in need of care
You say you had it under control
You know I can’t fill the hole it left you (No)
Baby, if I could give it at all
I wouldn’t hesitate for a minute
I would illuminate you with my love (No)
Turn to face the sunken
Look what you’ve done to me
All because you can’t fill the space
In your heart’s place so easily
You say you had it under control
You know I can’t fill the hole it left you (No)
Baby, if I could give it at all
I wouldn’t hesitate for a minute
I would illuminate you with my love
I would illuminate you with my love (No)
Turn to face the sunken
Look what you’ve done to me
All because you can’t fill the space
In your heart’s place so easily
It’s worth the effort to learn how to say no, and to still keep your friends!
