Altogether
Love's Insecurity: A Melodic Reflection on Self-Doubt and Devotion
Lyrics
I don't look a thing like your family
I don't resemble your family.
You wouldn't see me and say I fit in
You wouldn't look at me and think I belong.
You grew up with the homecoming queens
You grew up with popular, celebrated girls.
And I can't say that I've ever been
I can't claim the same experience.
There's a constant fear that I'm not enough
I constantly fear that I'm not adequate.
Got a good thing here
I have something good in my life.
No doubt I'll mess it up
Despite that, I fear I'll ruin it.
And I love being with you
I enjoy being with you.
But I question myself
Yet, I doubt myself.
Cuz you seem to good
You seem too perfect.
Not to want someone else
I question if you'd desire someone else.
Somebody shake me awake
Wake me up because I feel like I'm dreaming.
Cuz I'm dreaming
I'm in disbelief.
Somebody saw me
Someone noticed me and hasn't left.
And still isn't leaving
Despite flaws, the person stays.
I couldn't have asked for better
I couldn't have asked for better.
You turned my life upside down altogether
You completely transformed my life.
I don't know a thing about your interests
I'm unfamiliar with your interests.
But I'll still support you in every way
Regardless, I'll support you wholeheartedly.
It's not our fault you spend time on a court
Your time on the court is not our fault.
And I like life better on stage
I prefer life on stage.
There's a constant threat
There's a constant worry you'll find someone else.
That you'll find someone
Reassured not to worry, but it's hard.
Said don't worry about that
Concerned about losing you.
But how can I not
It's challenging not to worry.
When you look like you do
Your appearance adds to the worry.
You're too good to be true
You're seemingly too perfect.
You're the kind of boy every girl wants
You're the ideal every girl desires.
But I've got
But I have you.
So somebody shake me awake
Wake me up because I feel like I'm dreaming.
Cuz I'm dreaming
I'm in disbelief.
Somebody saw me
Someone noticed me and hasn't left.
And still isn't leaving
Despite flaws, the person stays.
I couldn't have asked for better
I couldn't have asked for better.
You turned my life upside down altogether
You completely transformed my life.
And I like the hourglass better this way
I prefer the changed perspective.
Wish I could ask if you if you could just stay
Wishing to ask if you could stay longer.
For the night for tomorrow even better
For the night or even better, forever.
If you wanted could you stay forever
If you want, can you stay forever?
Somebody shake me awake
Wake me up because I feel like I'm dreaming.
Cuz I'm dreaming
I'm in disbelief.
Found everything
Found everything I ever needed.
That I've ever needed
And I couldn't have asked for better.
And I couldn't have asked for better
You completely transformed my life.
You turned my life upside down altogether
-Altogether now
Altogether now.
