Maybe I was just good in small doses
Maybe I never meant enough for roses
Maybe I lied to myself and pretended you cared
Maybe for once i didn't want to be something to be feared
Maybe I thought if I was perfect enough
You wouldn't be so rough

Maybe I always was just a broken fledgling
Maybe I tried too hard
Maybe I didn't have enough heart
Maybe I didn't do or say the right thing
Maybe I didn't know what your wrath could bring
Maybe I lied and said things would get better
While the bruise just got redder
Maybe I held on because I was afraid
Afraid that I was something you would hate
Maybe I lost myself long ago
And you were the only place I could go
Maybe I should have seen
That you were just another razor edged between
