Fragile

April 2, 2014

I'm afraid to fall for you,

To let my heart go.

I thought I'd be fine,

I was contradicted by my mind,

Which got the best of me.

I just can't get hurt like he hurt me before.

I want to believe you're different

And you wouldn't try to

Break my heart.

But what if it breaks on accident?

What if you get tired of me,

Or I say the wrong thing?

Yes, I'm worried,

Because I've been hurt bad,

I'm sorry that I seem crazy.

Tell me everything will be okay.

I need to know what I'm getting into.

You give me this feeling

I never knew.

My heart's still fragile

But it's falling for you.
