Intimacy

In the grips of loneliness
I reach for someone to
Come fill the empty space
In reaching I found you
But it’s too much for me to take
Pushing this away, keeping myself safe
This cycle is going to make me break
Loneliness remains, it’s driving me insane
I know I’m just running from this
When I try to pull you in
You can’t take this from me anyway
In your arms I fall asleep
And it takes me to this place
I finally feel complete
When I look into your face
It’s too much for me to take
Pushing this away, keeping myself safe
This cycle is going to make me break
Loneliness remains, it’s driving me insane
I can’t keep pushing you away
Begging you to stay, keep the emptiness at bay
I know I’m just running from this
When I try to pull you in
And no one can take the emptiness away
It was all a fantasy
In reality
I can’t give this away
But I still want someone who will stay
