This is why I was scared
This is why I cut it short
I didn't want to get attached
I didn't want to let you in
I didn't want to love you
So I didn't believe it
Slowly, you got under my skin
inside my head
and took over my heart
it was so gradual, I never noticed it
so, me being scared, I cut this short
thinking, I'll save myself from heartbreak
I hoped I hadn't gotten too attached and that I could keep carrying on
but
I realized too late
you were already inside my heart
you made yourself a home there
and refuse to leave
and now, I'm here, filled with regret
regret that I didn't keep you with me
regret that I didn't see it sooner
regret that I cut you loose way too soon
I wasn't ready
I wasn't ready
I didn't want to love you, but I do
I didn't want to miss you, but I do
and now you left
you don't want to go through another breakup
So we'll have to learn to live without each other
but honey, I'm breaking
my heart is breaking
So what do I do?
I don't want to get over you
I don't want you to get over me
but we can never have what we want
so I'm sorry I complicated things
I'll leave
you already left
but I need to leave too
I need to move on
don't worry about me, I'll be fine
*have a nice life
