You're like a sliver of glass that gets jammed in my toe
I can't stand the pain, but I can't let you go
I can't cut you out, but I can't let you grow
I can't choose
I may
never
know

You're like a swarm of bees leaving my heart stung
I'm allergic to you, and you're making me numb
I can't feel my face, I've a swollen tongue
But these mistakes
get made
when
you're
young

I'm like a pack of wolves who devour your flesh
I leave you feeling naked, pained and depressed
My love can't be tamed unless I'm impressed
and you've got
my heart
beating out
of
my
chest
