In Two Minds
I DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE.
You don't need anyone.
I WANT SOMEONE TO LOVE.
Why would they care.
I'M AFRAID TO LET GO.
Don't put down your guard.
I DON'T WANT TO BE HURT.
Don't let anyone near.
I MUST OPEN MY HEART.
You'll go all soft.
TO LET SOMEONE IN.
And they'll walk all over you.
SHARE INTIMATE FEELINGS.
Make fun of your weakness.
SECRETS FROM WITHIN.
Make fun at you too.
ONLY WHEN THIS HAPPENS.
You know what happens next.
CAN NEW LOVE BEGIN.
The jokes all about you.
