Sting

'I need you' should be a simple thing to feel
And holding you against me should bring a calm
But there's a burning beneath my skin
Like a stab at my fingertips

I slip
Pulsing comes pushing through
The sting of all the insecurities I feel
Pulsing comes pushing through
The sting of all the insecurities I feel

That one day you would find somebody's touch to tear away those years
To take away the burden I've become accustomed to
To shed away the years of rot that clouded my view of you
To sweep off the dust of torn open chest
And breathe in a fresh air into a seldom trusted lung
Tell me something simple
Some sense of truth to pass the time
To trade away the silence for a whisper
To breath my air in for me as the pounding hits my head

You are the song in the back of my head
You are the words that I wrote but never read
You are the song in the back of my head
You are my worst
