Reese Fleming - To Be a King

Do I love the sun enough to not mind the heat
Do I love myself enough to know what's wrong with me
Truthfully you might be bad for me
Do I know myself enough to know when to stop
And do I care for you enough to know when you're not
Feeling good, or even better at all

Take me from pieces to poems, finding reasons just to show them
All your burdens I will hold them, and all your fears I will shoulder

Until I push this pen through the pages of my notebook
Where I write down my feelings when I don't know how to show them
Tearing holes in who I thought you could be, honestly you were just a dream to me
Recollections of a distant memory, of you fading in and out of who I wanted you to be
You were a princess, but I just wasn't fit to be a king
You were a princess, but I just wasn't made for royalty

Can I see the light enough to know where to walk
Have I heard your voice enough to know when to talk over you
Please, it's my turn to speak
Can I close my eyes long enough to fall asleep
Can I leave them that way until I see a dream
You and me, I, I see you and me

Take me from pieces to poems, finding reasons just to show them
All your burdens I will hold them, and all your fears I will shoulder

Until I push this pen through the pages of my notebook
Where I write down my feelings when I don't know how to show them
Tearing holes in who I thought you could be, honestly you were just a dream to me
Recollections of a distant memory, of you fading in and out of who I wanted you to be
You were a princess, but I just wasn't fit to be a king
You were a princess, but I just wasn't made for royalty
