"loud 2" lyrics

I'm not allowed to
To feel the way that I do
About you
You can't just now choose
That's what you made your vows to
But I could write a how-to
I could teach him to love you
I can't afford
To leave it all up to the lord to–
To guard you
I got this sword too, baby
I was anti war, but that was before you
I adore you

And somehow
I got so close to you
Wound up over on the other side of you
Went deep so quick
Couldn't keep my heart opened up wide for you
And the one you're stuck with
He ought to be a brother of mine
I don't want to fight, competition doesn't feel right
If you love him that's fine

You're allowed to
Just seems like he ought to be a little more proud to
Be around you
You are the crown jewel
But to him you're just the one that he's bound to
He doesn't know your value

I can't sink down to
The way I that I was before I found you
And lao tsu
I'm not allowed to
To feel the way that I do
About you

And somehow
I got so close to you wound up over on the other side of you
Went deep so quick
Couldn't keep my heart opened up wide for you
And the one you're stuck with
He ought to be a brother of mine
I don't want to fight, competition doesn't feel right
If you love him that's fine
