The Inmost

You're breaking my defence,

So dear but so intense

I strive to hold you back,

To prevent your sharp attack

And with every breath you graze my heart

It strikes me back to the start

So I bury my face and begin to see

I can't give you more of me

You know, I did not show, I did not show it cuts in deep

I must rely on absent love, to get through and to feel free

So this may be the price

A soul as cold as ice

Like a spiral move inside,

Is there any more to hide?

And with every breath you graze my heart

It strikes me back to the start

So I bury my face and begin to see

I can't give you more of me

You know, I did not show, I did not show it cuts in deep

I must rely on absent love, to get through and to feel free

With those tears you ask me what I feel

Something honest, something real

But it came to be too close for me

As the innermost is what I fear

You know, I did not show, I did not show it cuts in deep

I must rely on absent love, to get through and to feel free
