Can you hear the night calling?
Can you hear that sound?
It's the sound of my beating heart slowing down
I've always been so gullible
That was my first mistake
I took this love for granted
Which was another red flag up
Though the worst part
The worst mistake
The worst choice I could make
Was ever letting you through my walls
I gave you the knife sharpened
I pointed out in my heart
All the places you could kill me with
Though that was just the start
I shared all my desires and dreams
All my flaws and all my schemes
Trusting you to not cut me deep
Though you went deeper than I thought
You went through every single one
How could you?
Oh that's right, I forgot I'm gullible
Believing every lie that you've told
So in the night I sit
Thinking all this through
Can you hear the night calling you?
Can you hear that sound too?
It's the sound of my beating heart slowing down
Because of you
Though that was before
A long time ago
I've learned something new
I've came to a conclusion
A good one too
I cannot change what has been done
I'm glad it happened though
You were not a mistake
You were a lesson that I learned from
I learned that being upset because your gone
Won't do me any good
So I must move on
I'm doing pretty well
Placing my broken heart back together
Without your guidance this time around
Even if I'm not close to done
I'm still working it on my own
I'm getting better as the days go on
Then one day I'll sit in the dark and crack a smile
Can you hear the night calling?
Can you hear that sound too?
It my heart beating perfectly
Without you
