Lyrics
Open up my chest
Expressing vulnerability by opening up emotionally.
And see the scars that I collect
Revealing past emotional wounds or hardships.
Naked in the dark
Metaphorically exposed and defenseless in a challenging situation.
I'm here to show my beating heart
Intention to reveal one's true feelings and emotions.
Close enough to hurt you
Being emotionally close enough to potentially cause harm.
Where every seam is see-through
Transparent, revealing inner vulnerabilities.
I'm just scared of tearing you apart
Fear of causing emotional pain or damage to someone.
I'm just scared I'm close enough to hurt you
Expressing fear of being in a position to hurt someone emotionally.
Where every suture bleeds through
Every attempt to mend emotional wounds reveals more vulnerability.
I'm just scared of tearing you apart
Continued fear of causing emotional harm or separation.
If you don't wound me
Desire for a genuine connection through shared vulnerabilities.
I'll show you everything I am
Willingness to open up if reciprocated with understanding.
I'm damaged and hiding
Acknowledging personal flaws and emotional scars.
The parts of me that need your care
Certain aspects of the self needing care and attention from others.
Close enough to hurt you
Reiteration of the emotional closeness that may lead to pain.
Where every seam is see-through
Emphasizing transparency and vulnerability in the relationship.
I'm just scared of tearing you apart
Fear of causing emotional damage or separation persists.
I'm just scared I'm close enough to hurt you
Continued fear of being close enough to emotionally harm someone.
Where every suture bleeds through
Every attempt to mend emotional wounds brings more pain.
I'm just scared of tearing you apart
Persistent fear of causing emotional harm or breaking the connection.
You're getting closer, and closer, and closer
The emotional closeness intensifies, causing anxiety.
Anxiety is rising, rising, rising
Heightened anxiety in response to increasing emotional closeness.
It threatens to take over, over, over
Anxiety threatening to overwhelm and control emotions.
But I can't keep on hiding, hiding, hiding
Unable to continue avoiding emotional vulnerability.
Close enough to hurt you
Reiteration of the potential for emotional harm in closeness.
Where every seam is see-through
Highlighting transparency and vulnerability in the relationship.
I'm just scared of tearing you apart
Fear of causing emotional damage or separation persists.
I'm just scared I'm close enough to hurt you
Continued fear of being close enough to emotionally harm someone.
Where every suture bleeds through
Every attempt to mend emotional wounds brings more pain.
I'm just scared of tearing you apart
Persistent fear of causing emotional harm or breaking the connection.
I'm just scared of being torn apart
Expressing the fear of personal disintegration or emotional breakdown.
