I just wanted to make you proud,
but thinking back on it...

Trying so hard to make you proud
she doesn't know what to do...

Do you know why
I am so scared to be loved by you...

Time and time again,
the volume of your voice...

You said you would never hurt me,
and like a fool, I believed your every word...

Ive spent so much time trying to trust again
but it always comes flying back...

Somewhere out there,
pieces of my heart...

If only I could turn back time
I wish I could have screamed...

I keep waiting patiently
to see what you throw my way...

Do you crave me to care that your fear is keeping...
sleeping through fear is easier said than done...

It started with a promise so long ago,
words wrapped up in roses...

You picked someone like me because I appeared soft...
You were the one with the power...
