I’m bad at letting go

and I always try to

find a way to make it so

that I don’t have to

but with you I can’t find a way

I try to make it easy

when it’s impossible to

I’m afraid of feelings

that could make me look like

I’m made of things soft

I know it always ends up wrong

when I’m pretending and I try to seem more shallow

and I know it’s sad

But I can’t help it when you look at me

I’m thinking you have no idea what you are looking at

and would you still be looking – if you knew?

I’m bad at letting close

and I always try to

find a way to keep it cold

but I always end up

hoping you will be the one to melt my core

Ooh, I know it always ends up wrong

when I’m pretending and I try to seem more shallow

and I know it’s sad

But I can’t help it when you look at me

I’m thinking you have no idea what you are looking at

and would you still be looking – if you knew?

Ooh, I know it always ends up wrong

when I’m pretending and I try to seem more shallow

and I know it’s sad

But I can’t help it when you look at me

I’m thinking you have no idea what you are looking at

and would you still be looking – if you knew?

I try to keep it in control

afraid to lose myself

but I think you see it now

through my outdated schemes and plans

I’m made of things soft
