Iris
Avril Lavigne and Johnny Rzeznick Lyrics

And I'd give up forever to touch you
I am so desperate to be close to you that I would do anything, even if it meant giving up everything else for eternity.

'Cause I know that I feel you somehow
I have a strong understanding that there is a connection between us.

You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
Being with you feels like a divine experience that I cannot imagine ever achieving again.

And I don't want to go home right now
I am so enamored with you that I don't want to leave your side.

And all I can taste is this moment
I am so present in this moment that it is consuming me.

And all I can breathe is your life
You are so important to me that I rely on you for every breath I take.

And sooner or later it's over
Our time together is limited and will eventually come to an end.

I just don't want to miss you tonight
I am afraid of missing out on any moment we have together.

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
There are some emotions that are impossible to suppress, even if we try.

Or the moment of truth in your lies
Eventually, the truth will come out, no matter how hard we try to pretend otherwise.

So when everything feels like the movies
Sometimes life can feel like a dramatic production we have seen before.

Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive
Experiencing pain and vulnerability is a reminder that we are alive and human.

And I don't want the world to see me
I fear the judgment and misunderstanding of others if they were to see my true self.

'Cause I don't think that they'd understands
Most people are incapable of truly comprehending my inner feelings and desires.

When everything's made to be broken
It seems like everything in life is meant to be temporary and will eventually fall apart.

I just want you to know who I am
I want you, and only you, to understand and appreciate the complexities that make up my true self.
