I'm afraid of you.

You're so flawlessly perfect,
it's effortless.
You're you.
You say you love me.
You say you want me.
but I just push you away...

I'm so afraid of you.

You are like the epitome of my desires.
You have no idea how much I want you back,
how much I love you.
but I'm still so afraid.

I push you away
and tear you down
and shove you to your limits
because I don't know what else to do.

I can just somehow sense you'll be like everyone else
even though you reassure me that you never will.
I can just feel the words echo
"He's lying..."
over and over and over.
It's like a broken record,
embedded into my memory.

I'm afraid of you.
I don't even know anymore.
I'm so afraid of being hurt.
I'm so afraid of becoming attached.
I'm so afraid of you.
why...
I'm sorry I put you through this.
Don't put up with me because you know...
You don't have to.
I already know I'm not worth it.
