But she knows she has a curse on her, a curse she cannot win. For if someone gets too close to her the pins stick farther in.

I don't wanna feel
Don't let them touch my soul
Desensitize me.

I don't wanna hurt
Don't let the kill my soul
Desensitize me.

I don't wanna love
Don't let me hate the innocent
Desensitize me.

I don't wanna cry
Don't let them hear me weep
Desensitize me.

I don't wanna touch
Don't let me reach out my hand
Desensitize me.

I don't wanna die
Don't let me die
Desensitize me.
