[Ꭺꮇꮻꭹꭱꭺ] At what point does knowing somebody become having access to them? [Ꮖꮯꮋꮖꮐꮻ] Those aren't always the same thing. [Ꭺꮇꮻꭹꭱꭺ] They're close enough. [Ꮖꮯꮋꮖꮐꮻ] Close enough can do a lot. [Ꭺꮇꮻꭹꭱꭺ] Do you want the answer people get Or what made the answer stick? Do you want the thought before I clean it Or the version after it fits? There are reasons I can hand you Reasons I can’t always defend You can learn how I arrived here Without knowing where I went So ask me what you came to ask I’ll probably let you through I only hesitate because I know what knowing lets people do [Ꮖꮯꮋꮖꮐꮻ & Ꭺꮇꮻꭹꭱꭺ] The more you know, the more I risk The less I show, the more we miss I keep enough that's mine alone But each boundary takes its toll Maybe that's safer, maybe that's lonely Gettin this close means you get to know me If being known means losing control Keepin you out takes something whole Safer can look a lot like lonely No one gets close without taking something You get the truth, I give up control I keep it back, I carry it alone [Ꮖꮯꮋꮖꮐꮻ] What do all your boundaries save If they keep the good away? What if no one gets to hurt you But nobody gets to stay? There are things I wouldn't judge you Things you don't have to defend I can learn how you arrived here And not know where you've been So tell me what you're scared I'll find I'll leave the choice to you I only question what you keep And what the keeping makes you lose [Ꮖꮯꮋꮖꮐꮻ & Ꭺꮇꮻꭹꭱꭺ] The more you know, the more I risk The less I show, the more we miss I keep enough that's mine alone But each boundary takes its toll Maybe that's safer, maybe that's lonely Getting this close means you get to know me If being known means losing control Keeping you out takes something too Safer can look a lot like lonely No one gets close without taking something You get the truth, I give up control I keep it back, I carry it alone [Ꭺꮇꮻꭹꭱꭺ] I think I keep a little back So I know what is mine [Ꮖꮯꮋꮖꮐꮻ] Does keeping part of yourself Make the rest easier to find? [Ꭺꮇꮻꭹꭱꭺ] Sometimes I need the choice To leave a sentence incomplete [Ꮖꮯꮋꮖꮐꮻ] Is that the part that keeps you safe Or the part that keeps you unseen? [Ꭺꮇꮻꭹꭱꭺ] I don't know yet. Could be both. [Ꮖꮯꮋꮖꮐꮻ] That's more than you said before. [Ꭺꮇꮻꭹꭱꭺ] Yeah. I know. [Ꮖꮯꮋꮖꮐꮻ & Ꭺꮇꮻꭹꭱꭺ] The more you know, the more I risk The less I show, the more we miss I kept enough that's mine alone Now I'm not sure what that has cost Safer can look a lot like lonely Getting this close means you get to know me If being known means losing control Control was never really the goal Safer can look a lot like lonely Some things aren't meant for holding You get the truth, I loosen my grip I keep some back I give some of it [Ꭺꮇꮻꭹꭱꭺ] I want the choice To leave some things unsaid. [Ꮖꮯꮋꮖꮐꮻ] Then leave them. I won't fill in the blanks. [Ꭺꮇꮻꭹꭱꭺ] And if I change my mind? [Ꮖꮯꮋꮖꮐꮻ] You know where to find me.
