Hail Mary - Far Too Close

Turn the lights on and off again, as if it'll make a difference
I see you pulling loosely on both ends, and the pinholes start to open
I remember everything, romanticizing twin-size beds and the safety of my father's arms
Don't come too close, I'll hide behind the closet door and turn the lock
Don't come too close, I'll turn you into something more than what you are
If it's often, then how often? Sum it up and never soften
Laying cross-stitched on the carpet - slowing down but never stopping
Stellar only when we're sleeping, it's the only thing I'm feeling
Stitch the parcels back together, recall the message and the meaning
Run the water clean onto my head, just to see if it'll clear up again
I'm waiting for the memory to end, so I can see the river plain for the bends
I remember everything, romanticizing twin-size beds and the safety of my father's arms
Please don't start the car until I make it to the point where I am through the door
And I can see you shine your lights
If it's leading through the narrow, follow through
Is it with me? Is it fading? Can I go with you?
Don't come too close, I'll lock you up in side a space inside my heart
Don't come too close, I'll turn you into something more than what you are
