Silhouette of a Dancer

My skin still burns
All the places you've touched
So aware
Leave no place for hiding
Not last night, not this time

I close my eyes so the world can't see me
And draw the silhouette of a dancer in my head
I can't look through your eyes, but my mind betrays mine
Should I starve unmarked or confess to my blindness

My eyes still hurt
Fighting, chasing, chasing lights
As they form
Silhouettes behind me
Let them go, this time

Waiting for a change
I can't fight these chains everyday
I bleed to avoid the pain
Everyday I fade a little more

I close my eyes so the world can't see me
And draw the silhouette of a dancer in my head
I can't look through your eyes, but my mind betrays mine
Should I starve unmarked or confess to my blindness
