do you know

I wonder if you know
do you know
how many things I don't say to you
do you know?
I don't know why I don't
but I think the reason is cuz
I want to save you from the thoughts that go by
in my mind and I don't want to start anything up
so I choose to stay stuck
in my place where I know
these things and keep these things inside
not to lie
but to save you from the truth.

Don't want you to know things that are hard to show
don't want you to see the insecurities in me
don't want you to say you're sorry, it's all okay
don't want you to know what I cannot show.

I wonder if you think
do you think
about the times I've cried and pretended
all was okay, do you think of those days
I don't but I think the reason is cuz
I want to save you from the thoughts that go by
in my mind and I don't want to start anything up
so I choose to stay stuck
in my place where I know
these things and keep these things inside
not to lie
but to save you from the truth.

The truth, however, is ...
I want to be loved
I want to love
I want a friend to be my lover
I want a lover to last forever and
I want to be one with everyone
I want to be one with everyone.
