lyrics

Why are you hurting me?
I thought I was your friend
I believed in you
Finally trusted you
I thought that I could let my guard down around you
And say I loved you… I loved you

Shatters, everything shatters and I’m holding broken glass
Struggling not to drop all the pieces
Doing everything I can to not succumb to the pain
And you have the nerve to ask me why I’m bleeding

Tear me down – make me ashamed to feel
Take it back – Leave me with nothing
Should have known – It was my fault for trusting…
Fall alone – My fault for trusting all of myself to you

I loved you more
Trusted you more
And felt more secure
With you
Than anyone I’ve ever known
You shredded all those things so I can never feel them again

Opened up – Walls that had been closed for years
Shivering child - But the love outweighed the burden of fear
Beating heart – I pulled back all my ribs because I needed to feel to love…
I was so vulnerable
So vulnerable…
But I did it for you…
All for you…

I only wanted to love
I only wanted happiness
I only wanted to feel safe
I only wanted us to rise from a foundation built on understanding and communication
I laid out everything – heart on the line, I tried, so you would know all the weakness that I bring with me
And you saw me and you didn’t turn away and I was happy… For a moment too soon
