Afro Sensei - When I Fall Lyrics

Laid back
Relaxed
No sweat
Cool as an iceberg
Til you hold out your hand
And melt down my nerve
Always at one remove
Yea that's my word
Silent not strong
When it comes to
The heart of the matter
I think this could be serious
Halfway between pragmatic and delirious
Panic pawns passion
Emotion's a game of chess
Only human so afraid to bleed
But between you and me
I wanna love ya'
I wanna know you
Want you to know me
But I can't bear the thought of breaking
I can't explain it
Can barely name it
But when I feel it
Will you be there to catch me when I fall
100 miles and running
So restless
So relentless
Play like Oz
But cowardly when it comes to compliments
Perfectly imperfect
Oh so headstrong
Yet so tepid
Enraptured student can you teach me
When I spiral will you reach down
Through the depths of my mind
Guide me from the nocturne
Promise that I will give all that I deserve
Affection for affection
We transcend infatuation
Only human so afraid to bleed
But between you and me
I wanna love you
I wanna know you
Want you to know me
But I can't bear the thought of breaking
I can't explain it
Can barely name it
But when I feel it
Will you be there to catch me when I fall
When I fall
I wanna love you
I wanna know you
Want you to know me
But I can't bear the thought of breaking
I can't explain it
Can barely name it
But when I feel it
Will you be there to catch me when I fall
