vulnerable Lyrics

I built a shell

Hard enough to cover my soul and dreams

To protect me from the pain getting underneath

Cause it was hell

The last time I let it all show

I told myself since then

I'd rather be alone

But as time has passed

I remember what you said

And I met you out right on that rainy day

We shared words and laughs and hours seemed to pass

And suddenly it all began to fade

Cause with you

I'm scared that I will fold

And go back there to a place where my heart can just break again

With you

I can be my true self and nothing more

And never be afraid to be unsure

And I don't wanna keep you out

So I pray that you know when I reveal it all

Never thought I'd go back to being vulnerable

We're building trust

Telling secrets that we keep

Not letting traumas from our past leak in between

Cause we've had enough

And as the days turn into months

I feel myself needing more than me for once

But as time has passed

I remember what you said

With me you'll never have to second guess

We shared more than laughs

At least I'd like to think back

So can you give me all that I've been giving back

Cause with you

I'm scared that I will fall

And go back there to a place where my heart can just break again

With you

I can be my true self and nothing more

And never be afraid to be unsure

But I don't wanna keep you out

So I pray that you know when I reveal it all

Never thought I'd go back to being vulnerable

So if you hurt me I won't resent it

But I can't pretend it didn't happen to

It'll kill whatever's left of my heart

But you know that

Half of it was always for you

Cause with you

I've never been so happy and insecure

I just hope that I am always what you want

Yeah, with you

I tell myself

Together we're finally free

You never know how much that means to me

Cause with you

I'm scared that I will fall

And go back there to a place where my heart can just break again

With you

I can be my true self and nothing more

And never be afraid to be unsure

But I don't wanna keep you out

So I pray that you know when I reveal it all

Never thought I'd go back to being vulnerable
