Afraid Of Me
I'll put my words away for you
so you won't be afraid
You must think I'm crazy obsessed
but you're not alone...even I wonder some days
I don't know what I would do though
if I couldn't express myself this way
my words are the only thing that keep me from bleeding
from cutting myself open, gutting myself, dissolving into nothing
blackness surrounding me, like it did years before
I put my heart out there, trying to fix it, clean it & make it pure again
but I know it's too much to understand
I must be so arrogant to think that I'm even writing to anybody
that my words mean anything
that they might touch you, even scare you
I know that's lame
I'm writing to a ghost, a face that haunts me night and day
I'm possessed by crippling desire that just won't go away
If my words only had more power
and didn't taste so damn sour
They'd make you burn for me like fire
I wish I knew what to do
because I'd do anything for you
even put my words away
