Airing it out

Airing it out

Because I'm a coward
I act all big and strong
My fearless personality
has become one of my standout traits

Maybe saying that I am a coward
takes it a few steps too far
I truly am fearless
There's only one thing that scares me...

And that thing is LOVE
falling in it, never finding it, having mine abused
All of the usual things and the pain that they bring

Cause me to push away
all of the men who love me
I'M AFRAID TO BE LOVED


I am afraid to be loved
I hope that what everyone
wanted to hear
Because it's the truth

Pathetic????
No, just plain crazy
The only thing I want so desperately

I go running in the other direction
anytime it gets close

As the old school cliche goes
Baby its not you, its me

It really is
Truth is
I have some serious issues with love


If you want to back out
I understand
I guess it wasn't meant to work
anyhow


I never really could grasp
that whole unmerited love thing

I know that I love
people who don't deserve it

But I never thought that anyone
could do the same for me

Love me, even at my unloveable moments
At the lowest points of my life


I guess its my own fault
for never noticing all the love
that was right in front of my face.

So I guess I can't be mad that
I'm stuck in this place.
Loveless and alone.

For that love I didn't notice until it was too late :(
