lyrics

Reservations take their place,
I’m sure I needn’t tell you why.
One by one, this phantom tongue
ensures I won’t be coy or kind.

If you think you’ve found a way through, don’t force it.
If you want to shy away too, don’t thwart it.
But if you think you feel the same, don’t ignore it,
And I will too.

Caught by light I feel your eyes
inspect my body hair to toes.
Never moving mine too far
for fear of knowing that it shows.

If you think you’ve found a way through, don’t force it.
If you want to shy away too, don’t thwart it.
But if you think you feel the same, don’t ignore it,
And I will...

...cower and I'll make my bed,
I'll burrow and I'll play pretend,
I make excuses, I waste time,
I always change my mind,
I never feel inclined,
I'm deaf and I am blind,
I'm running backwards.

But if you think you’ve found a way through, don’t force it.
If you want to shy away too, don’t thwart it.
But if you think you feel the same, don’t ignore it,
And I will too.
