O you, living at the mercy of desire
Under the weight of expectations, why do you tire
Close by, the wind that sways and stirs me
It knows all, it’s there to urge me
Don’t suffocate the depth within you
Nurture your soul, don’t be afraid to grant yourself what’s due
I’m assailable, but I’m in my mind
I don’t need you telling me that I’m starry-eyed
I don’t wanna hold up if I can’t break
I don’t wanna shut down just to feel safe
I’m pathetic, so frenetically romanticizing
But there’s just something so poetic in the clutter, you can’t wear me down
Oh, you can’t wear me down
– Lyrics by Abdullah Siddiqui, Maanu & Xulfi
