The last song of the collection is 3 words. “I wrote ‘3 words’ for my mom and dad, in the attic of my old home. I’ve been struggling with the fear of losing them and others close around me for as long as I can remember. Writing this was my way of dealing with that fear and letting go of it a little....
I love you
3 words too shallow
So I try to make them count
Add the universe and all the stars above
You know I’m a happy kid
But part of me’s too scared of it
And I know fear’s to fight but I’m weak
I think the world only needs time
So you can be stolen and I can be broken a while
You know I try to make now count
But my mind is racing and I am running behind
So just hold me
I’ll dance around on your feet
So just hold me
And let me fall asleep
I need you
3 words too desperate
But I know you know it’s true
You can tell from the way my eyes are welling
You know I’m a happy kid
But part of me’s too scared of it
And I know fear’s to fight but I’m weak
I think the world only needs time
So you can be stolen and I can be broken a while
You know I try to make now count
But my mind is racing and I am running behind
So just hold me
I’ll dance around on your feet
So just hold me
And let me fall asleep
So just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
Before I fall too deep
