lyrics

Been feeling a little bit lonely
I’m not scared of that fate.
For everything I’m feeling
It’s the safest one I think
And I’ve learned to face
All my pain
But when you look at me
I find myself afraid
Why do you scare me this way?

I’ve learned to bind my heart in many ways.

I’m stronger than I was yesterday.
And all the battles I’ve fought
I hold the victor’s name
But what you ask of me is too much I say
For if I let you in
I’ll have to open up the gate

But you say
I hope for you
You’ll find the courage to
Love and let love back through
And stay vulnerable
Although it hurts
So that you can know
The good, too.

I’m a little frightened
That I may be weak
For if I love you darling
Than you’ve conquered me
And I know my happiness depends on me
But if I lean into you darling
I’m scared of what that might mean

And I accept myself more than I did yesterday
And I built these walls to showcase my strength
But when you look at me I admit
I still am afraid
And this weakness no
I can’t make it go away

But you say
I hope for you
You’ll find the courage to
Love and let love back through
And stay vulnerable
Although it hurts
So you can know
The good, too.

And maybe I built a few walls to
protect myself it seams
And maybe I built a few more
To protect the world from me
And perhaps that’s how I thought it had to be
To survive the things I’ve felt and seen

And I know I can’t hope to control everything
In regards to you, in regards to me
But baby I love you to me might
not mean the same thing
It means I’m vulnerable to you and now everything

I hope for you
To find the courage to
(oh my baby)
Love and let love through
(you make me weak)
And stay vulnerable
Although it hurts
So you can know
The good, too.

I wanna know the good too
With you.
