Faces seem so blank right
now
and people pass me by,
as I look into your eyes
and gaze up to the sky,
with deafened ears
and frozen tears
so I won’t have to cry.
And yet I can’t stop trying
to hear the things you say,
‘cause it’s true you know
I do want you to stay
and hold me tight
with all your might
so I won’t be afraid.
Afraid to face the truth
of what I truly feel,
the warmth and love for you
inside is very real;
and still I hide
what’s real inside
so I won’t half to yield
to the things I know
I so terribly fear.
To be quiet a while
and open up to hear
you look at me
and set me free
and yet
I shed a tear…
