Being with you
is like playing
peek-a-boo

And I still won't
even peek
through my fingers

You're so
Friendly with me
but you still haven't
seen
me

I'm frail inside
like a bird's
hollow bones

I'm like a snail
that won't
leave it's shell

And you're so
Welcoming
But I still won't
Let you see
me

Because I'm hurting
Because I know you'll
Punish me for
Feeling how I feel
   I know it's strange
Dunno what's real
   Can't even change
Can't seem to peel
Off
These
Layers
And that's why

Being with you
Is like playing
Peek-a-boo

And I'm
afraid of what I'll see
Through my fingers

You're so
Kind to me
but will you still be
if you see me?

Because I'm afraid
Because you might
punish me
for feelin how I feel
   I know its strange
Dunno what's real
   So hard to change
I just can't peel
Off
My
Layers
and that's why

I'm still playin this game
This is actually kinda a song I wrote, so apologies if it's a little harder to read haha
