A million things
I want to say
But I shield my face
and turn away
Swallowing my words
silenced by shame
A million tears
I want to cry
But I shield my face
and dry my eyes
Swallowing my hurt
breaking inside
Please stay here with me
Just hold me while I bleed myself dry
See straight into me
Just look beyond the tears in my eyes
A million things
I wish you would say
Even if I fall
that you will stay
And none of my flaws
can turn you away
Please stay here with me
Just hold me while I bleed myself dry
See straight into me
Just look beyond the fear in my eyes
Bridge.
Like a circle around me
Is the prison of this boundary
I need a storm to break it down
Shield your eyes from the fire light
But please don’t turn away from my side
I am not that - which I fight
Every tear I cry
Burns a way through my eyes
where I see through my lies
Every tear I cry
makes trails in the ice
where I am warm inside
