Holding in my Hands (An Edward Scissorhands Song)

Forgive me if I know not.. right from wrong,
This time alone.. has only caused self doubt.
And I've been cold now.. for far too long
Such an exciting feeling.. now that I'm coming down.

Beauty like this.. never existed in my mind,
But now you're staring at me.. from a picture frame.
Pacifying my wanderlust.. in this pastel paradise,
Invoking a realm of wonders.. in a marvel of landscape.

I can't handle these common delicacies,
And everytime I try, I leave another scar.
Lonely years didn't teach the daily intricacies,
Only bleedin' in the dark.. and before you judge me-

(Chorus)
Try holding in my hands,
These less than perfect hands..
You can never understand!
What I've been subjected to,
Trying not to wreck,
Everything you do,
If you try holding in my hands..
Maybe you would understand..
(This shame... my pain)

You all say you know a doctor that can help me,
Yet I'm unique.. and you wouldn't want to change that.
This isn't a handicap.. exceptional is what you tell me,
Get all you want.. just to turn on me..

(Buildup)
I know I'm different but not everyone knows,
The effort of my inexplicable lows..
You warm my invented heart,
That was only kept froze-(Hold me)
I can't wrap this pain around you.. (Hold me)
I can't, I can't, can't you see!-

(Chorus)
Try holding in my hands,
These less than perfect hands..
You can never understand!
What I've been subjected to,
Trying not to wreck,
Everything you do,
If you try holding in my hands..
Maybe you would understand..
(This shame... my pain)

(Chorus Extension)
Love returned is simply shear heaven.
Sharing with me.. a real life,
Was something that was never given.
With these less than perfect hands..

(Bridge)
I'm the snow maker, you're my angel of ice,
Let's dance in the debris.. of an invisible life.
I'll make the winter if you make the lies.
Bring on the heart ache.. that tears up my eyes.

(Chorus)
Try holding in my hands,
These less than perfect hands..
You can never understand!
What I've been subjected to,
Trying not to wreck,
Everything you do,
If you try holding in my hands..
Maybe you would understand..
(This shame... my pain)

These less than perfect hands..
(Hold me)
These less than perfect hands..
If you try holding in my hands..
(This shame... my pain)
(Hold me... hold me)

Notes:
"simply shear heaven."
'shear' is not mispelled to be 'sheer'
I just put it that way to be a play on words
