Assault! I rise and fall on the energy Coming up Like snow white doves, releasing their anger Your anger At me But I’ve done nothing, Nothing nothing Nothing at all Just slipped off my skates Fell on my ass Not realizing what you’ve done Tricked me, but not so harshly Trapped me, but not completely I think of these words I think of you Sitting staring Breathing Liebchen It hurts, it soars It makes me numb That pricking sensation of sticking needles Waking my skin up Trickling down over my cracked lip Bleeding a sacrifice my alter set out To please you but still I see you shy away Building up walls And me here with my chisel my hammer Slowly cracking this glass I see you waiting wanting me to come But you’re so afraid of me And yes I’m afraid Of your assault on my senses On my mind Making me hungry Cuz I’ve found something in you and you saw it in me A reflection bouncing across the hills Highways And miles and miles and miles So unstable like a small flame Just trying to burn Struggling, suffocating Without the oxygen to grow So we push and pull At each other Learning to trust
