The Injured List - Afraid Of You

Well, I'm in the dark right now
But I don't want to be here
In the lost and found
Waiting for someone to pick me up
Where are you
I can see your eyes from across the room
But I can't be sure you're really there
And I don't want to know what you think
And I don't want to know what you hope
And I don't want to know how you feel
I just want to know what you know
Cause I don't want to be
In the dark anymore
I just want to see
What I can't so I won't
Be afraid of you
Afraid of you
Afraid of you
Afraid of you anymore
Oh, you don't know what you're doing to me
I won't pretend that I'm not shaking in your stare
If only I could move you, would you finally
Feel these words as they leave me?
Cause what I'm left with might just kill me
Cause my confidence was my only defense
And I don't want to know what you think
And I don't want to know what you hope
And I don't want to know how you feel
I just want to know what you know
Cause I don't want to be
In the dark anymore
I just want to see
What I can't so I won't
Be afraid of you
Afraid of you
Afraid of you
Afraid of you anymore
What if I'm just setting myself up
I know that this is all because
I'm terrified of change
I'm afraid of what I'll write on the next page
And I don't know if it's me or the rain
But it feels like this could be just like last time
And I won't expect a thing
'Cause I can never see in front of me
I'm dying to believe
Everything from the lips that hypnotize me
But I can't even fall asleep
Afraid of waking up with nothing
With nothing
And I don't want to know what you think
And I don't want to know what you hope
And I don't want to know how you feel
I just want to know what you know
Cause I don't want to be
In the dark anymore
I just want to see
What I can't so I won't
Be afraid of you
Afraid of you
Afraid of you
Afraid of you anymore
Can you feel these words as they leave
Cause what I'm left with might just kill me
Cause my confidence was my only defense
