i wish you could understand 

what i cannot explain

i wish you could feel what i feel

when i look into your eyes

when i look into you

that intense feeling

that i cannot describe

that makes me move towards you

without even knowing why

and this just frightens the life out of me

but i can't stop seeing

that fragile and defenseless child

that i've made up in my mind

and that i would like to get in touch

even though i know

you don't want to let your guard down

i know i'll splinter 

i know i'm walking barefoot in glass

and i know it will last

'till the fire's out

'till you get tired of swallowing the smoke

or 'till i choke it all out

but i still wanna do this

for now
