Letting You In

Whispers in the dark, I’ve been hiding too long

Silent tears fall, where I didn’t belong

Built these walls so high, to keep the pain inside

Thought I was protecting us, but I was losing the light

Every little fight, every lonely night

Was nothing but a prayer for someone to make this right

But I see now, the only way is through

Opening my heart, making room for you

No more shadows, no more disguise

I wanna turn the tears into brighter skies

I’ve shut you out, thought I was strong

But I was losing us, I was wrong

You’re my whole world, I’ve tried to hide

But I wanna love you, let you inside

Was caught up in the pain, running deep in my mind

Lost in the silence, afraid of what I’d find

But now I see the truth, I’ve got nothing to prove

Just wanna be honest, show you I’m changing too

Breaking down these walls, I’m finally free

Reaching out with all my knees

No more hiding from the truth

It’s time to start anew

I’ve shut you out, thought I was strong

But I was losing us, I was wrong

You’re my whole world, I’ve tried to hide

But I wanna love you, let you inside

If I could take it all back, mend what I broke

I’d open up my heart, let you see the hope

You’ve always been my anchor, my guiding star

Now I’m reaching out, I’ve come so far

No more walls, just us in the light

Holding on tight, making it right

You’re my everything, I need you near

Finally whispering, I love you, my dear
