Why is it whenever you get close
I run away
why can't I see what you offer
am I blind to love

Am I that scared of pain
that I cannot love
am I that scared of me
that I don't know how to love

What is this feeling
deep within my being
that says I need you
but when you are there I hide me

Who am I
how can I show love
if first I cannot understand myself
how do I let go?

Is there an answer
to this pain I put upon myself
show me how to give my love
I know that it is there
because I can feel the pain as it trys
to escape from within

Still I bottle it up
and will not let it show
were do I go
who do I see
I see you

Help me to show
the love held within my being
let me show
that it is for you
