Afraid To Feel - Anacrusis

I paint myself on you… the silent wall

My words… my thoughts… my touch… my all

Emotionless… emotionless

So in control of nothingness

This stone-false face you’re caged within

Wears thin…

You pour yourself out into me… the lonely thirst

Quenching the emptiness within

But I frighten you… I frighten you…

I take your breath and smother you…

As you fight for your life…

I cling on for mine…

For mine…

So in control… so in control of nothingness

So in control… so in control… afraid to feel

I know you’re there somewhere…

Too close to touch

I’m digging too deeply…

You’re too clear to see

I frighten you… I frighten you…

I take your breath and smother you…

As you fight for your life…

I cling on for mine…

For mine…
