Afraid This Time

Even if you want, you can't touch me now

Leave me if you want, you can't hurt me now

Build them up

High and strong so you'll never have to hurt too long

Put them up

'Til they surround and there's no real you left to be found

Hold it up

High above no fear of hope or trust or love

Close it up

And hold your ground and wait

Until it's time to finally close it down

It isn't easy to admit

I don't think I'm believing it

I'm afraid this time

Ooooh, ooooh

(It isn't easy to admit, I don't think I'm believing it)

It's not the same this time

Ooooh, ooooh

(It isn't easy to admit, I don't think I'm believing it)

Build them up

High and strong so you'll never have to hurt too long

Put them up

'Til they surround and there's no real you left to be found

Close it up

And hold your ground and wait

Until it's time to finally close it down

I'm afraid this time

Ooooh, ooooh

(It isn't easy to admit, I don't think I'm beleiving it)

It's not the same this time

I'm afraid this time

(Even if you want, you can't touch me now

Leave me if you want, you can't hurt me now)

I'm afraid this time

(Even if you want, you can't touch me now

Leave me if you want, you can't hurt me now)

Even if you want, you can't touch me now

Leave me if you want, you can't hurt me now

Ooooh, ooooh

I'm afraid this time

(This isn't easy to admit, but I don't think I'm beleiving it)

Ooooh, ooooh

(Even if you want, you can't touch me now

Leave me if you want, you can't hurt me now)

This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid

This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid

This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid

This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid

This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid this time

This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid

This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid

This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid

This isn't easy
