Can I be honest and say...
Sometimes I get scared that I did actually love you
Sometimes I get scared that maybe it's me and I'm the reason you didn't choose
Sometimes I get scared that you were right in walking away
And sometimes I get scared when I hear myself crying because I wanted you so badly to stay
Sometimes I get scared that I'll never again feel this way
Sometimes I get scared that my name will never sound the same
Sometimes I get scared that you will always be the one I come back to
Because compared to anyone else, in my mind it will always be you
Sometimes I get scared that I don't put myself first
And sometimes I get scared that I'll never learn
But what scares me most of all is that my heart will always be marked with the burns you left behind
And the scariest part is I know deep down, I'll never let another man truly see what lays inside
