fall for you (acoustic) Lyrics

I carry my heart around

On a linen sleeve

I always thought we could be

Like a fire caught in sheets

Oh but now

I wish this wasn't real

This hole you made

It left no hope to heal

I loved you once so shame on me

You fooled me twice so easily

And I would rather waste away

Than tell the truth that you hurt me cause I

I won't see all the wrong

In all that you've become

And I'd hurt through this again

To fall for you

Your tethered wings hold you down

But you've never tried to fly

You were the angel inside my dreams

Now you're the trouble in my life

So you take

Your bitter anger out

On the one

Who just wants to talk you down

So tell me darling what's your need

To be so fucking mean to me

You say your life has tethered wings

But I hope you know that in my dreams you're free

To live the life you want

And all I'd ask of you

Is to give me just one chance

To fall for you

I'm ready

To let go

But I can't leave

You alone

It won't feel

Like my song

Without you singing here with me

Maybe I

Cared too much

About what

Never was

If you cared

Like you said

Why'd you leave

So if you really want to be

Such a narcissist to me

Go ahead and grit your teeth

And say you'll make your own damn way from here

And live the life you want

But we both know you're scared

To really face the truth

About what you have become

And even if it hurts

The bitter truth remains

You'll run from your mistakes and I'll

I'll fall for you
