You expect me to be a person I'm not
To engage emotions that now in me, rot
A prisoner of the kind of love set adrift
Into a world I've accepted doesn't exist
They tell me to open up, give love a try
Why risk being hurt by more pain and more lies
They say that I can not tell what the future holds
But experience shys me from what I've been told
You expect me to be engaged and involved
When to me love is a dark mystery unsolved
Why swim with the currents of love that evolves
From uncontrolled emotions soon to dissolve
Dissolve into nothing but salt tasting tears
Stirred with blood from a heart now ridden with fears
Why risk starving for someone who might not care
Why drain your soul of peace? I know, I've been there
So free me of promises of what love brings
Silence all the songs of emotions you sing
For numbness protects me from love and it's sting
And saves me future tears for my eyes to wring
