I Don't Feel Safe

Wrap me under your cloak.

Let me pretend to be untouchable.

Forgive me if I seem to doubt you;

I don't feel safe.

A day of reckoning is coming.

The odds are not in my favour.

I can feel the darkness in my chest;

I don't feel safe.

Am I unforgivable?

Are you going to wake up one day,

And suddenly see me differently?

I don't feel safe.

If I walk away now, will you forget me?

Will I vanish in my own darkness?

Will I damn my own soul?

I don't feel safe.

You are not weak.

You are not cruel.

But you can not save me from myself.

I don't feel safe.

I must collapse against the wall,

So that I know it isn't caving in.

But I can not collapse against my heart.

I don't feel safe.

These doors are so close;

They're not even locked.

But I can't even rise to open them.

I don't feel safe.

I am weak and deflated.

I hear my heart beat like a hammer,

Breaking me to pieces.

I don't feel safe.

If I push you away, will I be unforgivable?

Will I be banishing myself forever?

Will I be damning my own soul?

I don't feel safe.

I don't feel safe...
