A million things
I want to say
But I shield my face
And turn away
Swallowing my words
Silenced by shame

A million tears
I want to cry
But I shield my face
And dry my eyes
Swallowing my hurt
Breaking inside

Please stay here with me
Just hold me while I bleed myself dry
See straight into me
Just look beyond the tears in my eyes

A million things
I wish you would say
Even if I fall
That you will stay
And none of my flaws
Can turn you away

Please stay here with me
Just hold me while I bleed myself dry
See straight into me
Just look beyond the fear in my eyes

Like a circle around me
Is the prison of this boundary
I need a storm to break it down
Shield your eyes from the fire light
But please don't turn away from my side
I am not that - which I fight

Every tear I cry
Burns a way through my eyes
Where I see through my lies

See straight into me
Just look beyond the fear in my eyes

Please stay here with me
Just hold me while I bleed myself dry
See straight into me
Just look beyond the fear in my eyes

Like a circle around me
Is the prison of this boundary
I need a storm to break it down
Shield your eyes from the fire light
But please don't turn away from my side
I am not that - which I fight
