The Inmost

You're breaking my defence, So dear but so intense I strive to hold you back, To prevent your sharp attack And with every breath you graze my heart It strikes me back to the start So I bury my face and begin to see I can't give you more of me You know, I did not show, I did not show it cuts in deep I must rely on absent love, to get through and to feel free So this may be the price A soul as cold as ice Like a spiral move inside, Is there any more to hide? And with every breath you graze my heart It strikes me back to the start So I bury my face and begin to see I can't give you more of me You know, I did not show, I did not show it cuts in deep I must rely on absent love, to get through and to feel free With those tears you ask me what I feel Something honest, something real But it came to be too close for me
