I wouldn’t know what to do, once I had it

Why can’t I be myself? I’m frozen solid when it comes to you

I turn to stone and don’t know what to do

But the longing won’t leave and that’s the truth



Please give me the confidence to face this straight in the eye

I’m standing in the open, but I’m sure not to survive

Everything I’ve ever wanted, are all the things I’ll never have

And if I ever were to have them, I wouldn’t know what to do with them



Just take me apart, and spread the disease

Because I’m already sick of trying, I’ll never get what I need

Nothing but a rock, that should sink beneath these waves

I might appear to be living, but I’m full of death just like the grave



I just can’t find the words to let out anything of significance

I’m lost when it comes to trying to find you

I just can’t be myself, forever trapped beneath this shell

You can’t ever get inside, I’ve got more than enough reasons to hide



What will it take to penetrate this stone?

To finally open my eyes, to pretend I’m not alone

What it will take it something that doesn’t exist

I’ve stopped trying, it won’t bother to persist



I hide behind this mask, because I can’t stand who lies behind it

I hide behind this dirt, because I can’t stand the world above it

I hide myself from you, because I can’t handle what might come from it



I’m so frozen
