if I weren't afraid

I would look you in the eye
No trembling tears
No frightened gaze
And let you have it all

Clawing into the armor you wear
And digging into the truth beneath

Id scream at you
The truth that I
So desperately needed you to hear
And for once give you no choice
but to listen

Pull the strings of your heart to pieces
Just as you did mine
And force you to meet my gaze
As equals

I'd tell you how I truly feel
I'd tell you what I've wanted to say
I'd let you go
As you are nothing to me now
And never look back again

I'd show you the person you made me into
If I weren't so afraid
