Believe on the Master Jesus the Messiah and you will be saved! (Apostle Paul) #faith #salvation


She’s trying so hard to figure you out
Throwing her heart around and about
Swift in disguise with that intentional smile
Clueless replies
She’s laughing tonight
When she caught herself humming a song
When she felt so unpredictable
But her feelings are just

Magnified...
The flower blooms and thinks it’s you
You’ve got her hanging on through the night
Hesitant of what she fell into
But if her heart allows
She’ll look about
And figure out
That it isn’t love
That her feelings are just magnified


The surface is all that she sees
Head over heels feeling
Though underneath
Might just terrify her still young beliefs
A closer picture
Leaves the uncertain clearer
Somehow everyone seems so naive
‘Cause she caught herself singing a song for you
But her feelings are just

Magnified
The flower blooms and thinks it’s you
You’ve got her hanging on through the night
Hesitant of what she fell into
But if her heart allows
She’ll look about
And figure out
That it isn’t love
That her feelings are just magnified

'Cause then an honest guess strikes reality
A dream crashes down with perfect fantasy
Disillusionment comes lurking around

She never meant to hurt herself
With something palpably harmless
A hopelessly romantic profound

She looks in the mirror to tell herself,
“Well, now you know
It’s better to wait than to hang on tight
Wishing you’d never have to let go
Time is our friend not to neglect
‘Cause things are already set
In the right time
At the right place
Don’t you forget…’

“Those feelings were just magnified
I saw his eyes and wanted them mine
He'd got me hanging on through the night
Hesitant of what I felt inside
But then my heart allowed
So I looked about
And figured out
That it isn't love!"

And then she craned outside
Displayed the prettiest smile
'Cause she realized
You can never hurry love
Those feelings were just magnified

The author's comments:
I wrote this song after observing someone (she's close to me) undergo this little, teen girl dilemma herself. Though I myself could actually relate to it. Oh no! Haha! I hope that this song will act as a warning to every teen out there--whether boy or girl (if you're a boy just alter the pronouns *wink*)--"You can never hurry love..."

If you like it, I hope you check my video on www.youtube.com/shockingreality. Look for: "Magnified Jash Bagabaldo original song" (Yup! I sang it myself.) :)
