Run.
I want to shut out the whole world.
I want to barricade myself away from everything
I want to build a wall so tall no one can ever overcome it
I want to push everyone away
I am scared of hurting them.
Terrified really, of the damage I am capable of
I am a threat, a hazard
to one and all
Don't get too close
You will only end up leaving anyway
Don't let me love you
You will end up fading away with time
Do not let yourself become important to me
It will only prove to be your demise.
I'm sorry I am this way
I am so sorry for putting you through this
I thought the distance between us would stop me
Stop me from hurting you
But it seems as though
It doesn't matter what I do
I'll just end up causing pain...
All I ever wanted was to be able to love
To love someone and cause joy
Be the reason they smile
Be the reason why they feel they can conquer the world
But as I get older all I see
Is what I am made to be
And so I fear to get close
Fear to let you in
Fear.
Yes fear...
Fear it all
