Deadly Games

Prepared To Fall

You told me not to be afraid

That I could trust you

You said you'd never let me fall

And I started to believe

That love was possible

For someone like me

So I jumped

I gave everything up and trusted you

I tore down

All the walls I worked so long to build

And I let you in

I ripped out my heart and handed it over

Thinking you'd care for it

I was wrong

You chewed it up and spit it out

And left me standing, bleeding, in the dust

Wondering

How I could've ever trusted someone

So terrible

So I put all my walls back up again

Stronger, more solid

Vowing

That I would never again jump

If I'm not prepared to fall
