nothing more than presence is required
and my patience has expired
in terms beyond desire
i'm wanting it all.

you feel the need to relate to me and
i don't think you're prepared to see it my way

i've lost my will to question.
don't care if there's a reason
no interest in perfection
by the way, emotional transactions
resulting in subtraction
are more than just a factor.
i'm wide awake when i dream at night.

tell me how it feels to be afraid
and tell me how it feels to be alone
tell me how it feels to be alive
i'll tell you how it feels to be afraid of life alone.

you feel the need to relate to me and
i don't think you're prepared to see it my way
