Do you love me?

I stand in the shadow
In the comforting grey
Don't want to come out
Don't want to show the real me
Someone steps into my shadow
You are one of his!
I say, I don't know him
Do you love me?

I am afraid
To let people know
Let them know the truth
I hide in my shell
But someone breaks through
You belong to him!
I say, Don't know the guy
Do you really love me?

Deeper...deeper I hide
Deeper into my ivory tower
Don't want to lose
Who I've got right now
Then someone smashes my tower
You do know him!
I cry out...shout aloud, I DON'T!
Do you love me more than they

The rooster crows
He looks me in the eyes
I look at him, but not for long
Everything hurts
Everything aches
When the bullets of his question
Are ripping me apart
Do you really love me?
