I got an imaginary shield around me
But nobody’s ever really getting through
I keep thinking that they’re gonna break me free
But they never do (no)

When somebody’s knockin
When somebody wants me
When somebody’s trying to love me completely
I get scared
Don’t know how it works
Will somebody save me?
Or will I get burned?
Don’t wanna get burned

Is there thickness in the air?
Or are you heavy on my heart?
Why can’t I just fit in?
Why can’t I do what everyone else does?

People come around like a storm
When you least expect them to
For me I run for cover
When I should really face the truth

When somebody’s knockin
When somebody wants me
When somebody’s trying to love me completely
I get scared
Don’t know how it works
Will somebody save me?
Or will I get burned?

Don’t wanna get burned

What’s wrong with me?
I get lonely in a crowd
Everyone is smiling
But I made myself left out

(x2)
When somebody’s knockin
When somebody wants me
When somebody’s trying to love me completely
I get scared
Don’t know how it works
Will somebody save me?
Or will I get burned?

(x3)
I get scared (I get scared)
Don’t know how it works (Don’t know how it works)
Will somebody save me? (Will somebody save me?)
Or will I get burned? (Or will I get burned?)
