"Let The Floodgates Open" lyrics

To hell with my defense and my coping
I'm gonna let the floodgates open
It took so much to let you in, but I let you in

Soul starts to leave my chest (Starts to leave my chest)
Lay my weary head to rest
Waiting for my only truth (My only truth)
I'll dream of when I'll dream with you
Offer you my everything (Offer you my everything)
But there's nothing left for me to bring
So pull me off the dusty shelf (Pull me off the dusty shelf)
And I promise I'll try to fix myself

To hell with my defense and my coping
I'm gonna let the floodgates open
It took so much to let you in, but I let you in
I never thought I'd find my way out
But you can help me find myself now
I thought by now I'd fall apart
But now you're in my way to start again

I tried and tried to fade away (Tried and tried to float away)
But you believed in me and helped me stay
I know that I've seen better days (Know that I've seen better days)
But losing you would be my mistake
I feel you shining like a star (Feel you shining like a star)
Your glow, it tells me you're not far
I knew you'd fit me from the start (Knew you'd fit me from the start)
So take my hand and take my heart

To hell with my defense and my coping
I'm gonna let the floodgates open
It took so much to let you in, but I let you in
I never thought I'd find my way out
But you can help me find myself now
I thought by now I'd fall apart
But now you're in my way

Pourin' over me like rain (Pourin' over me like rain)
We'll stay inside, I'll keep you safe
The clouds will part, I'll meet you there (I'll meet you there)
So don't be sad and don't be scared
I feel you shining like a star (Feel you shining like a star)
Your glow, it tells me you're not far
I knew you'd fit me from the start (Knew you'd fit me from the start)
So take my hand and take my heart
