Love Me Anyway

Heartland Rock, Folk Rock, Americana, Indie Folk, Indie Rock, Alternative Rock, Dream Pop, Synth-Pop

[Chorus]
[Drums crash in, full and powerful. The guitar becomes a driving arpeggio. Vocals soar with desperate energy.]
So please, don't let this be the last time I fuck up
Don't let my final memory be shattering your cup
I am a flawed construction, I am a work in doubt
I will let you down again, I'll figure a way out
To break your trust in little ways, I'm begging you to stay
And love me anyway, oh, love me anyway

[Verse 2]
I'll forget an anniversary, I'll work right through a date
I'll say the one thing that I shouldn't, I'll show up late
I am a catalog of errors waiting to be made
A beautiful disaster that you somehow once forgave
And knowing all of this, I still come back to beg you for the key
To the one place in this world where I don't have to pretend to be
Anything but this... a man who's bound to lose his way

[Chorus]
[The music swells, even more anthemic. Backing vocals layer in for emphasis.]
So please, don't let this be the last time I fuck up
Don't let my final memory be shattering your cup
I am a flawed construction, I am a work in doubt
I will let you down again, I'll figure a way out
To break your trust in little ways, I'm begging you to stay
And love me anyway, oh, love me anyway

[Bridge]
[Music strips back to the pulsing synth and a simple kick drum. Vocals are close, intimate, and broken.]
I don't deserve the mercy falling from your eyes...
But God, I am a desperate man, and you're my only skies...
You have every right to walk, to save your heart from me...
But I am on my knees, for all the world to see...

[Final Chorus]
[The full band returns with overwhelming power. The vocals are a full-throated, cathartic roar.]
NO, DON'T LET THIS BE THE LAST TIME I FUCK UP!
DON'T LET MY FINAL MEMORY BE SHATTERING YOUR CUP!
I AM A FLAWED CONSTRUCTION, I AM A WORK IN DOUBT!
I WILL LET YOU DOWN AGAIN, I'LL FIGURE A WAY OUT!
TO BREAK YOUR TRUST IN LITTLE WAYS, I'M BEGGING YOU TO STAY!
AND LOVE ME ANYWAY! OH, JUST LOVE ME ANYWAY!

[Verse 1] I'm standing here with all my best intentions in my hand They look a lot like empty promises, I understand I've mapped the faults and fractures in this fragile frame of mine I know the way the darkness pulls, I cross the crooked line I can't stand here and tell you that the storm has passed me by I can only tell you that I need you, and I don't know why You'd even wanna listen to another word I say [Chorus] [Drums crash in, full and powerful. The guitar becomes a driving arpeggio.
