she believes he's perfect
he believes he's not
she doesn't want to hurt him
because love was not what he was taught

he believes he's a mess
she knows otherwise
he thinks these things
but she knows they're lies

she wants to help him
he states that he's tough
but she can see through it
into his life which is an underrated rough

she believes he's perfect
he believes he's not
she doesn't want to hurt him
because love is what he has brought
