I’m lost, unable to truly love.
Satisfying my own needs.
Make it hard for me to sweep you off your feet.
I make it harder to want to even be here.

Don’t bother trying to get close
You’ll burn out at the starting line.
Don’t try to captivate my heart, you’ll overdose.
A poison lingering inside.

Give up on getting me to talk.
‘Cuz I gave up a long, long time ago.
I really don’t even want to do much.
I don’t want to socialize, just leave me alone.

Don’t bother trying to reach me.
I’ll cut you off if you’ve come too far.
I don’t have that many tendons left.
I’m already battered and scarred.
Don’t tell me that it’s not hard.
I haven’t tried every method.
But I’ve tried all of mine from the very start.
Let go of me, I’ll keep pushing back anyways.
Look you straight, dead in the eyes.
Lie to you, “It’s fine, I’ll be okay”.
