I can see right through your skin
And the ice is getting thin
With every moment that passes by
And I can feel a rushing numb
As your breath fills my lungs
Even though I tried, tried, tried
To deny all this love that was still alive
I always meant the best for you love
To shield you from the darkness that runs through my blood
I never meant to test your trust
But all these secrets have turned our passion to dust
Somewhere you're letting the thought of me go
And I'm trying my hardest to grow
Out of the cold heart I've grown into
Maybe then I'll have the nerve to confess
That I never deserved your best
But I still can't leave you
Maybe it's the sign of a troubled soul
Maybe I just don't want to grow old
Without you here by my side
Perhaps it's a weakness I'll never admit
You're the only one I'll never forget
Won't you please, please hear my cry
I always meant whats best for you love
To shield you from the darkness that runs through my blood
Now I've burned through all my time like a drug, you see
That now it's time to really see what you think of me
