can you love me?
without me having to open
that long closed box of
h a u n t i n g m e m o r i e s ?

can you love me?
without my t e a r s
without my s m i le
when I'm showing you my w o r s t side.

can you love me?
when I wake up in
the middle of the night
nightmares haunting me and
i just wanna cry.

can you love me?
when I say I can't
love you like that
the way you've dreamt
for a l m o s t f o r e v e r.

can you love me?
when I raise my v o i c e
I've been s t i f f l i n g for years.

can you love me?
when I act mad and crazy
cause I've lost it faking my sanity.

Do I need to bleed everytime
I want to be l o v e d?
I don't need a l o v e l i k e t h a t.
