How long, how long 'til I'm no longer a shadow ‘Cause I've been thinking I'd so love to feel again Silence; I screamed her name And wondered why you never came I wear my curse you wear my cure (I feel destined for disaster) I never thought I'd be this way Without you I'd just fade away Please see in me what I can't see I'm begging Please won't you be the light I need so desperately My heart has habits of silhouetting all my sense I get your worth, you get my worst (I feel destined for disaster) I never thought I'd be this way Without you I'd just fade away Please see in me what I can't see I'm begging Please won't you be the light I need so desperately I look for love in everybody else ‘Cause I tried but I can't love myself Please see in me what I can't see I'm begging Hold me close in winter's weather I'm too weak to pull myself together I've tried so hard to grow in a place without your warmth Now there's nowhere left for me unless it's safe between your arms
