safety might not be
in the places i once thought

finding safety again
can be harder than it seems

please don't go
i know that everybody has to grow
but please don't leave
i really don't want to grieve

please don't go
we could take it slow
you were my very best friend
and i'm not ready for that to end

intimacy is your greatest fear
but distance is mine
i wonder why you don't want to hold me near
i guess you're just too afraid to share your mind

why must i be bonded to something
that causes me so much pain?

every time my heart aches
i will say a little prayer for you

i will never let anyone see the worst of me
because the one time i did
they left
