In anxiousness I'm twisting ,
Drift into restlessness,
This prison keeps shape-shifting walls,
I think you suffocate me, constricting everything,
So quick to give what you have no idea will one day cost.

Forgive my scepticism,
What you call insecure, I call protection,
I can't trust anyone who just gives away their whole world,
No one gives that up for free - no one like me,
It's cost to much to open it up to just anyone.

I don't think you hear me,
Do you want me to say it again'
I don't think you hear me,
Can't you see it's making me sick'

No, I don't think you can,
Don't think you care, at least not as much as you swear,
And so I'll have to say goodbye.

Subtle as a haemorrhage,
From none to everything,
Shovel in and take what you can find,
Cold as a starved constrictor,
Bites like a soft caress, consuming with determined pride.

Do you think it pleases me to push you away again'
This should have ended long ago,
But you need to dig it out again, so it is as it began,
There was never us; there's only you.

I don't think you hear me,
Do you want me to say it again'
I don't think you hear me,
Can't you see it's making me sick'

No, no, I don't think you can,
Don't think you care, at least not as much as you swear,
And so I'll have to say goodbye, 'til you bring it up again.

I think you suffocate me, constricting everything.
