Cannot Have It All

I’m afraid to fall apart
I’m afraid to show that I have so many weaknesses
I’m afraid of my own heart
And what you’d find if I allowed you to go deeper in

I’ll let you in but you cannot have it all
I’ll lose control if I get too vulnerable
Retreat until I need something only you can give me
But you cannot have it all
But you cannot have it all

A risk I don’t know how to take
If I can change the stars, if I can outwit fate
Avoid the monumental fall
If there’s an easier way, I’ll go without delay

I’ll let you in but you cannot have it all
I’ll lose control if I get too vulnerable
Retreat ‘til I need something only you can give me
But you cannot have it all

What did you see in this?
Was it emotionless?
And if you can’t break the walls
Will you finally then withdraw?

I’m afraid to fall apart
I’m afraid of my own heart

I’ll let you in but you cannot have it all
I’ll lose control if I get too vulnerable
Retreat ‘till I need something only you can give me
But you cannot have it all

I’ll let you in but you cannot have it all
I’ll lose control if I get too vulnerable
Retreat ‘til I need something only you can give me
But you cannot have it all
But you cannot have it all
But you cannot have it all
