The fear takes over me, as I start to break down
You fill me with so many emotions and I don't know how to handle them
The fear that once left me wont leave me now
I sit here in the dark because its all I can do.

I know there's nothing I can do now, now that it has me
Shaking, I decide to move, but my body wont let me
It has taken over, and there's noting I can do
Taken over me all over again.

If you knew what you put me through would you care?
If you knew what your eyes do to me would you still stare me down?
If I told you how I react to your distance would you move closer?
Or would you sill put me trough this?

The way you move makes me want to move with you
But you wont let me
If the day came where you held me close
All my fears would leave me.

I try to move again, the fear is still holding me down
We try so hard to be loved, and to love
And when I finally decide I know what I want
It doesn't want me back.

The feeling of sinking takes over me now
And nothing will let me look back
If you where here I would feel safe
But your not...

You make the sun seem small
But only in my eyes
The sinking slows as I think of your eyes
And nothing will ever be the same now.

I had a taste of joy, but I let it go
Now I have nothing but fear
Can we ever go back?
I want that back more than anything in my life.

the tears start to fill my eyes when I think of that time
I was so happy, nothing but joy
Why, Why did I give it up?
Because the fear took over me.

I can feel the cold grasp start to break.
But I know it wont last
You will stay distant, and I wont say anything
But it secretly kills me.

You hate the way you are, so you close yourself off to the world
But there are some of us who love what you are
You know the way I feel
But you will never fully understand

If you know what I would give for you
You would know that I know what I want
Where you to give me a chance
I would show you how much you mean to me
