We're alone in our own minds
And that terrifies me
We don't share the same thoughts
Nor the same explanations
Our interpretation of things
Are all different
We create these ideas in our head
And so do others
And these ideas may be similar
Or not at all
So when I tell you
"That flower is beautiful"
You may have a different idea
Of beautiful
We're communicating with words
Not thoughts
And when you say
You love me
We may not have the same meaning
Nor reciprocate the same message
And that terrifies me
