I just want to find someone,
Who understands my need.
To wrap myself up tight with them-
And disappear inside their soul,
Find comfort in the girlfriend role,
I play.

Take me in and hold me close,
Keep away the ghosts,
Of my past and my future.
Because they take me ever nearer to the edge.

I need to feel wanted,
Or else I might just fade away.
Float on into the forgotten world of the discarded,
Part of the land of misfit toys and broken things that no one wants to see.

Gaze upon my face,
Is it empty?
Or is it full of emotion you just don't want to read?

Please just let me lay here,
With my face against your chest,
Your hands wrapped around me;
Tuck me in right against your breast,
And rock me, softly, to sleep.
