I’m afraid
Of falling without wings,
I’m terrified
Of losing you and of other things,
But I’m mostly frightened
Of this love and its strings

Because when I fell,
You made me feel
Like I was under a spell,
As if my heart was yours to steal
And it hurts knowing,
That I can ever be so exposed
And this ache is forever growing,
This love seems over imposed

My heart stops beating,
A silence in my chest
My breathing is depleting,
It feels like I’m going into cardiac arrest

Because when I fell,
You made me feel
Like I was under a spell,
As if my heart was yours to steal
And it hurts knowing,
That I can ever be so exposed
And this ache is forever growing,
This love seems over imposed

I want to be free,
From all sense and feeling
I want to be able to see,
Through the darkness you’ve been concealing
I want to hear,
The meanings behind the words you mutter
To know that you’re sincere,
When you say you love me and I felt your heart flutter


Because when I fell,
You made me feel
Like I was under a spell,
As if my heart was yours to steal
And it hurts knowing,
That I can ever be so exposed
And this ache is forever growing,
This love seems over imposed
Yet deep down I know,
That all this is real
And that maybe-just maybe-I’m ready to truly feel
