While I was walking in your shadow I never got to see my own light Like a man meant for the gallows I never even put up a fight I believed the one who loved me was always going to be there and that your opinion of me was the truth and always fair I loved you unconditionally and thought I'd receive the same Your harsh judgement of me meant that I was to blame Blindly I continued to follow you as you took advantage of me But the truth came bleeding through and I had to step away to see That the person who once fed my soul was instead feeding on me That my heart had a huge hole that could only be filled by me

That Hole in My Heart
While I was walking in your shadow I never got to see my own light Like a man meant for the gallows I never even put up a fight I believed the one who loved me was always going to be there and that your opinion of me was the truth and always fair I loved you unconditionally and thought I'd receive the same Your harsh judgement of me meant that I was to blame Blindly I continued to follow you as you took advantage of me But the truth came bleeding through and I had to step away to see That the person who once fed my soul was instead feeding on me That my heart had a huge hole that could only be filled by me
Love is blind, it leads you down roads you would never travel on your own. Unconditional love is dangerous and needs to have boundaries . When you fall in love with love you are a danger to yourself.
