I thought I knew you. I thought I knew what you liked, What you knew, What you were. I thought that you knew your limits. But now I wonder If you were ever that person at all, If it really was you, Talking with me, Laughing with me, Making me feel safe. But was I ever safe? I try to think about how I myself have changed, And I can't even figure out why. Everything is abstract. Can change in a second. Doesn't need to follow a pattern at all. Knowing that I may never know the true you Ever again Scares me more than life itself.

Stuff Of Nightmares
I thought I knew you. I thought I knew what you liked, What you knew, What you were. I thought that you knew your limits. But now I wonder If you were ever that person at all, If it really was you, Talking with me, Laughing with me, Making me feel safe. But was I ever safe? I try to think about how I myself have changed, And I can't even figure out why. Everything is abstract. Can change in a second. Doesn't need to follow a pattern at all. Knowing that I may never know the true you Ever again Scares me more than life itself.
I don't know if I have ever truly known anyone at all. I know it shouldn't bother me, but it does.
