Gone Are The Days

Do I dare even wear what I was thinking of My true colors bleeding on my sleeve Do I chance the romance that I've been dreaming of Instead of wishing for it quiety Always at a distance I wish You'd safely stayed Despite my resistance You sought me anyway [chorus] Gone are the days Of all that I was afraid of I've left behind the traces of who I've been I'm no longer able To wrestle with this angel And the closer You get I can let You love me I had found it was easier to dance around The edges of who I could be If I chose to expose what grows deep down Would You still desire what You see No more self-rejection No longer paralyzed This holy perfection Is my inside Your eyes [chorus] Gone are the days Of all that I was afraid of I've left behind the traces of who I've been I'm no longer able To wrestle with this angel And the closer You get I can let You love me (You love me) Nevermind this mirror hanging on the wall Cause I could not pretend to be the fairest of them all Took a hammer to the glass To shatter all the pieces, the pieces of my past [chorus] Gone are the days Of all that I was afraid of I've left behind the traces of who I've been I'm no longer able To wrestle with this angel And the closer You get I can let You love me [repeat until fade]
