I just poured out my heart to you I just ripped truth and fear from my flesh I offered you my ******* insecurity And now im petrified in nothing but these bones, naked I told you, I told you I was scared I admitted it, even though everything in me shook at the thought of you knowing God, my 'what ifs' are showing Do you know how utterly ashamed I am of these? These pounding questions, these hounding worries make me weak Do you have any idea how much blood I spilt begging myself to speak? I am everything with my clothes off, I am nothing with my mouth open Opened up to you, all my petals plucked and I am **** out of luck Because all you can do is stare "I am terrified of the possibility that you might not care" I just slit open my tongue and wrung out those  ****** words for you Please, ********* dont just stare

What it takes to admit it
I just poured out my heart to you I just ripped truth and fear from my flesh I offered you my ******* insecurity And now im petrified in nothing but these bones, naked I told you, I told you I was scared I admitted it, even though everything in me shook at the thought of you knowing God, my 'what ifs' are showing Do you know how utterly ashamed I am of these? These pounding questions, these hounding worries make me weak Do you have any idea how much blood I spilt begging myself to speak? I am everything with my clothes off, I am nothing with my mouth open Opened up to you, all my petals plucked and I am **** out of luck Because all you can do is stare "I am terrified of the possibility that you might not care" I just slit open my tongue and wrung out those  ****** words for you Please, ********* dont just stare
