Don't Come Closer

Don't waste your breath, I've heard it all before Sweet words are just a key to a locked door I built these walls with my own two hands You think you're different — no, you won't understand I don't need saving, I don't need your light I do just fine alone in this fight Don't come closer, don't reach for me I bite before you get the chance to see Trust is a wire that snapped once before I won't hand you the key to this door You keep standing there like the cold don't scare you Patient eyes, like you already knew I've seen that look, it's dressed up as care Last time it looked like that, it wasn't there I don't need saving, I don't need your light I do just fine alone in this fight Don't come closer, don't reach for me I bite before you get the chance to see Trust is a wire that snapped once before I won't hand you the key to this door Maybe I'm tired of guarding an empty room Maybe the quiet's just another kind of wound I'm not asking you to stay I'm just — not telling you to go away Don't come closer, not yet, not now I don't know how to let you in somehow Trust is a wire I'm learning to hold Just don't be the one who leaves me cold Don't come closer... not yet
