With every touch
I'm in more pain then before
With every permanent butterfly
Comes the urge to tell you
I am chained up
By the fear inside of me
I am worn and torn
Bruised and beaten down
From the pain
That comes with a broken heart
I would give you the rest of me-
heart and soul
Except, you may not give the same to me
For, maybe you lie too
Like all the others
But I think
I'll let you take what's left of my heart
If it shatters this time though...
There will be nothing else
Left to give

This is about wanting to give somebody all of who you are but being afraid to because you have been hurt by so many others.
