Open Heart

I lost myself because I loved you

I didn’t love myself because I loved you

You became my world and I was just living in it

I shouldn’t have ever let you in

I let you do things because of love

Lost something I held close thinking you were closer

You knew your effect you had on me

I shouldn’t have ever let you in

Being with you made me the happiest I’d ever been

Having you in my arms was the warmest I’ve ever felt

Without you is the emptiest feeling I’ve ever had

I shouldn’t have ever let you in

Now you left me with questions

Questioning my worth

Questioning my faith

I shouldn’t have ever let you in

I tried so hard to keep you around

Made promises of “it doesn’t have to mean anything”

But at the end I felt everything

I shouldn’t have ever let you in

I let you in

You let me down

Chose another girl

I shouldn’t have ever let you in

I’m learning to love myself

To let my heart not be bitter

You didn’t deserve me

I shouldn’t have ever let you in
