are you afraid of what i’m trying to say?
(i’m not afraid)
tell me the reason that you’re running away
(am I running?)
i miss a part of you i still haven’t found
physically naked in a figurative shroud
some bullshit we’re at it again
you’re twisting your tongue out of focus
with wordplay and kitsch on the couch
as if there’s nothing more important to notice
are you afraid of what i’m trying to say
(i’m not afraid)
tell me the reason that you’re running away
(am i running?)
we’re choosing words that we can barely pronounce
to whisper nothing with an eloquent sound
some bullshit we’re at it again
caress and a kiss on the forehead
my distance mistaken for depth
but i need you deeper and i’m willing to show it
are you afraid of what i’m trying to say
(i’m not afraid)
tell me the reason that you’re running away
(am i running?)
i know your body in the warmth of the night
but ache for something i can see in the light
some bullshit we’re at it again
revealing feelings only now that’s it’s over
i dig through the dirt and the glass
to search for anything i should have noticed
