running away from my shadow

I don't care if you don't listen

I don't care if you don't cure

but don't you dare pretend its nothing

and don't ever say that I'm pure
*

there are days when I am human

when I collect and I repent

and there are days when I am broken

when I can't ignore my own content

*
I find myself igniting

feelings too big to fit my frame

and everytime they start reacting

it blisters, it burns off my shame

*

and it happens that I wonder

will I ever be able to explain?

will I ever be able to reach you

can I ever fight your disdain?

*
I am sure that you remember

all the trouble I caused on the way

all I can say is I'm sorry

and please hold me when I sway
