The Love I'm Frightened Of


Luke Batt


If I wait, don’t move a muscle
maybe somehow a spark will strike
it’s been a long night
so sincere but the message is still a struggle
knives with which we juggle while we jump through fire

So maybe I’ll move on and make a mistake
and see if my earth quakes

This is the love I’m frightened of
doesn’t come with a leaflet that says how to keep it
this is a love that can’t be seen
no detailed instructions or Japanese symbols
like you find on a washing machine

Slow me down, apply some gentle pressure
and maybe somehow a spark will strike
I hope it might

One is best but lacking in conversation
safe but no relation to the warmth you give

So maybe I'll move on and make a mistake
and see if my earth quakes

This is the love I’m frightened of
doesn’t come with a leaflet that says how to keep it
this is a love that can’t be seen
no detailed instructions or Japanese symbols
like you find on a washing machine

This is the love I’m frightened of
doesn’t come with a leaflet that says how to keep it
this is a love that can’t be seen
no detailed instructions

This is the love I’m frightened of
This is the love I’m frightened of


the love i'm frightened of
