Untamed Goldfinch

UNTAMED GOLDFINCH Verse 1 You looked at me like judgment day Like you could read beneath my skin Most women only wanted pieces You wanted all the war within I should’ve left the first night, maybe But you moved like smoke through locked-up rooms Every time I tried to keep you You made me face myself too soon Pre-Chorus You were never soft obedience Never silence at my side You kissed me like a challenge And called out every lie Chorus Hell… you were the goldfinch I could never fully tame The more I tried to walk away The more you stayed inside my brain You loved me past religion Past the man I tried to be And I hated how you saw me So I came back again and again Verse 2 You reached for truth, I kept my distance You burned with fire, I clung to control You searched for something real between us While I kept splitting mind from soul I spoke of fate and virtue While wanting you with dirty hands I talked like salvation While drowning where I stand Pre-Chorus Every time you challenged me I felt weaker… then alive Like you could touch the frightened boy Buried underneath my pride Chorus Because you were the goldfinch I could never cast aside Even after all the damage You still echoed deep inside You made me feel defenseless Like my strength was never enough I learned to break things before they break me When love starts feeling too much Bridge I called you my worst mistake Just to make the guilt feel small But nothing that meant so little Could still haunt me after all I called you chaos But truth is… You only shattered what was false Final Chorus Now sometimes late at night When the room goes dark and still I remember how you looked at me Like no one else ever will And I wonder somewhere underneath If you still feel what we became Cause no matter how far I run I still whisper out your name Outro Untamed goldfinch… Still flying through my mind Untamed goldfinch… Some loves never die
