THIS IS MY OFFERING FOR LOVE

Title: My Offering for Love [Intro] (Fm9 rhodes chord, guitar arpeggio) [Verse 1] I don't have diamonds that bleed from the earth No kingdom, no altar, no proof of my worth But I've got a pulse that remembers your name And a throat that still sings through the ash and the flame [Pre-Chorus] I've burned every letter I wrote to myself I've knelt in the rubble of somebody else But you — you look at me like I'm already whole So here is my body, my blood, my soul [Chorus] This is my offering for love Not perfect — just enough Take the cracks, take the dark Every jagged little part This is my offering for love Let it tear the heavens off I'm not holding anything back now Tell me — is that enough? (Guitar shred fill - 4 bars) [Verse 2] You've seen me unravel in fluorescent light You've held me through seizures in the middle of the night So don't tell me pretty — tell me the truth What does a woman like me still have left to prove? [Pre-Chorus] I've burned every letter I wrote to myself I've knelt in the rubble of somebody else But you — you look at me like I'm already whole So here is my body, my blood, my soul [Chorus] This is my offering for love Not perfect — just enough Take the cracks, take the dark Every jagged little part This is my offering for love Let it tear the heavens off I'm not holding anything back now Tell me — is that enough? (Guitar solo - 48 seconds) (Clinical shred - melodic - tapped harmonics - pinch harmonic) [Bridge] What if love isn't fixing? What if love is just witnessing? You saw the storm in my ribcage And you didn't run — you stayed So I'm laying down my armor I'm laying down my pride Take my offering for love The mess I've always tried to hide [Chorus - half time then full] This is my offering for love Not perfect — just enough THIS IS MY OFFERING FOR LOVE LET IT TEAR THE HEAVENS OFF I'M NOT HOLDING ANYTHING BACK NOW TELL ME — IS THAT ENOUGH? [Outro] (whispered) Is that enough...
