Verse 1
You asked me once
“How can anyone be scared of love?”
You said it like it’s easy
Like hearts don’t break that much
I didn’t try to explain it
I just pulled you close
And gave you every part of me
Like I didn’t know
Verse 2
I told you things
I never told a soul before
Every fear, every weakness
Every door I kept locked
You saw the worst of me
And you said you would stay
I thought if you knew everything
You wouldn’t walk away
Pre-Chorus
I trusted you with everything
I never thought you’d use it
Chorus
I gave you the map to my heart
Every fragile part
Every place that I could break
You knew it from the start
And when you left, you didn’t miss
You hit me right where I live
So tell me honestly now…
Who wouldn’t be afraid of this?
Verse 3
Now I’m lying here
Going over every word
Trying to find the moment
Where everything just turned
Was I too much for you?
Did I love you too deep?
Or were you learning all my wounds
Just to cut where it’s deep?
Pre-Chorus 2
You knew me better than I knew myself
And that’s what hurts the most
Chorus
I gave you the map to my heart
Every vulnerable part
Every promise, every dream
You held there in the dark
And when you struck, it went straight through my soul
Like breaking something you already own
So tell me honestly now…
Who wouldn’t be scared to let go?
Bridge
The worst part is…
I’d still do it again
If loving you meant one more moment
Before the end
Final Chorus
I gave you the map to my heart
I let you tear it apart
Now every time I let someone close
I’m scared of where to start
If loving someone means giving them the knife
And praying they choose your life…
How is anyone not afraid of love?
