There's so much inside, protected and safe
Within the arms of my own self
To open up, to blossom and let you in
Would hurt the stars and break the ice

A darkened hollow where love should have been
The fright pervading the heart and soul
I can't see beyond, there is nothing left
I don't want to care, I don't want to hope

In this silence, you'll never know
The world curled tight within my fist
But I can still know you
I understand what's in your heart
