(10) And I want to tell you. So badly. But I'm afraid everything will change. I'm afraid that you wouldn't understand. And that's a risk I'm not going to take.

(9) You want me to spell it out for you - 

(8) But I'm not paranoid. It looks like...

(7) I'm starting to shake. You seem to have it all figured out. I think you know the truth. Or am I getting paranoid? I'm getting paranoid. I'm paranoid.
