Shut the door and turn off your phone
Feel your nakedness
Feel alone as your body trembles in the kitchen chair
She doesn't hurt you, doesn't cut your hair
Oh, her eyes, they read you like a written page
And you lay before her on this empty stage
Oh, it's going somewhere, going somewhere fast
She knows how to love you and she'll make it last
It's not so scary, it's not so scary
No it's not so scary, it's not so scary to be loved
Her love is violent like a surgeons knife
If it doesn't kill you it'll save your life
As the truth bleeds out and hits the floor
She doesn't hate you, no, she begs for more
And it's not so scary
{Chorus}
Your worst nightmare is coming true
How did you let this happen to you?
Try as you might, squirm in your chair
You wouldn't rather be anywhere else
The cat is out, nothing's in the bag
And your cover's blown like a filthy rag,
But she wrings it out and she wipes your brow
There's nothing but her love to clothe you now
And it's not so scary
