​cherish

[Intro]
The synesthetic rambles of a madman
Not gonna blame you if you don’t understand
The way i appreciate your simple existence
I cherish it
I cherish it

Hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm

I cherish it

[Verse 1]
Can't see the future, so I drown in the noise
Forgot what face to face feels like anymore
Too much screen time for a lifetime
I don't pay as much attention as when I did before

Trying to ink my blood on pixels again
Recycled metaphors and similes, all I've got left
So when I'm letting the weight fall on you
I hear no joy in the sound of your voice

[Chorus 1]
How can we hope to be happy when there's always a catch?
I know I'm dramatic as hell, and I'm not built to last
But if you ever find yourself going insane
I'll hold you close to my heart, feel my hands on your face

[Verse 2]
Is that enough to ground you back down to earth?
You know I'm never gonna not put you first
Even if I fall apart and sink into dirt
My biggest regret would still be you getting hurt

'Cause what'd even matter if you disappeared?
I tend to fake liking loneliness as a self defense
But I built my life around the people I love
If I can't build much else, I hope that that's still enough

[Chorus 2]
When I feel I’m lacking safety, always searching for warmth
You tell me not to be worried
‘Cause my troubles are yours
The world can't hurt us while you’re embracing me, dear
Run your fingers through my hair, brush away all my tears

[Interlude]
The synesthetic rambles of a madman
Not gonna blame you if you don’t understand
The way i appreciate your simple existence
I cherish it
I cherish it

[Bridge: mollywithawhy]
Drown out the rest until we finally get that
What really matters is right in front of us
You mean the world, I'd give up my soul to
Quiet your nerves and steady your heartbeat

Drown out the rest until we finally get that
What really matters is right in front of us
You mean the world, I'd give up my soul to
Quiet your nerves and steady your heartbeat

[Outro: nickwuh]
Still conjuring ghosts into the deadest of nights
And talking to myself to kill the quiet
But I know I’m not alone ‘cause of all of you

I cherish it
I cherish it
