Everything will be alright as long as I don’t see you
I will be alright as long as I don’t see you
My heart won’t madly throb as long I don’t see you
My stomach won’t be twirling as long as I don’t see you
My nerves will sleep in peace as long as I don’t see you
My hands won’t quietly shake as long as I don’t see you
I try and love myself as long as I don’t see you
I can do anything as long as I don’t see you
As long as our eyes don’t meet
This sour ice won’t get to me
And just as long as long as I look away
My mind can reach a thousand ways
And I believe I’m free
As long as I don’t see
As long as I don’t hear
I can pretend I’m clear
In thought and in intention
As long as I don’t talk
My fear’s a word in chalk
And I can clean the board
So, after all I’ve said
Do I want to see or hear or talk to you?
Can I?
Please?
