Numb

There you go again, sending messages of affection
Letting me know how special I am.
There you go again, seeking my attention
Making me feel how numb I am.

You're a bee trying to woo a rose,
But I don't know how to respond to it.
My prickling thorns could leave your heart with wounds;
I fear you can't find a way to escape.

It's not that I'm too choosy,
I'm just looking for something I don't even know.
And telling you is not easy;
That this thing I look for is not in you.

How could I get rid of my thorny heart's sting?
I don't want to hurt you.
How could I say I love you without pretending?
I'm not hit by Cupid's arrow.
