Hesitation

Should I trust you again?

What if I get hurt the same way?

I'm tracing the lines of the things that you said

Before the trust began to fade to gray.

What if this time it's different?

I'm standing right at the edge of the light.

My heart is reaching out for your ghost,

While my mind is preparing for another fight.

Oh, I still love the way that it felt!

But love alone won't fix the cracks in the wall!

I'm caught between the fire and the ice!

Trying to stand while I'm ready to fall!

My heart is a house that you burned down before!

And I don't know if I can open the door!

(I don't know if I can open the door...)

The scars are just memories that won't go to sleep

(Memories that won't go to sleep)

They're waking me up in the middle of the night.

I want to believe that the bridge is still sound,

But I'm terrified of losing the light.

Oh, I still love the way that it felt!

But love alone won't fix the cracks in the wall!

I'm caught between the fire and the ice!

Trying to stand while I'm ready to fall!

My heart is a house that you burned down before!

And I don't know if I can open the door!

(I don't know if I can open the door...)

I almost called you back into the dark

I almost gave in to the pull of your gravity.

But missing the warmth of a ghost in my bed

Doesn't mean you belong here with me.

A part of me will always love who we were,

A part of me is finally moving on.

The sun is coming up on the wreckage,

And I'm not as afraid as I thought I'd be.

Goodbye, my love.
