I don't mean to ignore you
Trust me I adore you
I'm just too sacred to get close,
I'm just too scared to get closeToo scared to stand by the fire
Too scared to walk the wire
Too scared to feel myself exposedCuz holding ur hand
Means ur holding my heart
And seeing the parts of me that aren't all that pretty
It means getting naked in the shower
Talking on for hours
Watching how easily I fall apart
And seeing parts of me that are honestly kinda shittyAnd I don't want to be a bore
I don't want to hear ya snore
As I drone on about all my little obsessions
I just wanna see you smile
Maybe hold ur hand a while
And embrace you with all my love and affectionBut
Maybe I should inquire
Where I could acquire
Some better social skills (before approaching you obviously)
So I don't look like a wacko
Who doesn't know how to taco
And checks all her essays with grammarly (who the hell doesn't though)
I'm just tired of being lonely
Wishing that somebody would hold me
(Psst that's you if you didn't get the cue)
And maybe I can make you feel less lonely tooBut I'm just to scared
Too scared to get close
Too scared to get close to those closest to me
Too scared of anyone really
But mostly scared of youScared of your smile
And how it makes me feel
Scared that maybe my smile don't have that same appeal
Scared that like the rain
I'll wash it all down the drain
Scared I can't make you laugh or feel that way I feelI guess I'm just too scared
Maybe I'm just too sad to care
Or maybe I'm just shy
But to be honest I don't even know why
I honestly don't even know why3.4.18
