A tender song based off of >this post< by @reddiemorelikeredyee (warning, the post has dark themes such as overdoses etc) but I ended up going for a VERY tender route. Warning. It’s Tender.
This song, “He Knew Well Enough” tells Richie and Eddie’s relationship story over the years, and of course at the end, Richie proposes live on stage. Cover art by @birdsatthequarry !!
Lyrics under the cut!

He’s a mess, but you’re a cleaner,
He’s a skeptic, but you made him a believer,
You’ve given him everything, but he’ll never let on,
He makes you feel brave, and you make him feel strong,
[Chorus1]
He’s so tired of speaking in code,
All those dirty little secrets he wants you to know,
You’re playing the long game, and you’re playing it rough,
And he wonders if he fell in love,
But he knew well enough.
He’s a snorer, but you’re a deep-sleeper,
You’re so damn hot, you give him a fever,
You’ll play piano for him, and he’ll play you his guitar,
He’ll give you a headache, then he’ll give you his heart,
[Chorus2]
He’s so nervous about the first time,
But one look from you and he knows he’ll be fine,
Another second later and then your lips brush,
And he wonders if you fell in love,
But he knew well enough.
[Bridge]
All the time that’s passed and the time that’s yet to come,
Aren’t you glad you left the prison you were from?
The man who loves you wants to keep you safe from harm,
And keep you close in his arms.
He’s a mess, but you’re a cleaner,
He’s so damaged, but you’re the best healer,
You’ve given him everything, and he hopes that you know,
The universe changed for him when you said ‘hello’,
[Chorus3]
And he’s so in love with all of your faults,
He knows you’re perfect, so don’t change at all,
You know you’re the only one he’ll ever dream of,
There’s nobody else I’d rather love,
But we knew well enough.

My next parody video will be released on Sunday at some point in the evening aahh!! I’ve had the privilege of working with three of my lovely friends for this project, members from The Crayon Box cosplay group! So, I mean, technically I won’t actually be in it. But I produced it, wrote it and filmed it, so yknow. :P
The song will be available for free on my SoundCloud, but I’d really appreciate it if you would buy the song from Bandcamp! It will be £1 (which will be different in other currencies but :X), just like the Dil Howlter Rap, but you can choose to pay more if you like :P
If you don’t want to buy the songs on Bandcamp, but wish to support me, then I am trying to work on some other ways that you can do so! Thanks a bunch, everyone who’s watched my videos and supported my channel from my first vlog.jpeg and beyond and who have helped me get to where I am today! And thanks most of all to all of you that have been patient for this new content!
