Scared to love again

[Intro]
I used to believe in forever…
Now forever sound like a lie
You don’t know what that do to somebody…
Yeah…

⸻

[Chorus]
I’m scared to love again, I been through too much pain
Every time I let ‘em in, they leave me in the rain
Got my guard up high, can’t let nobody in
Say you different, but they all just play pretend

I’m scared to love again, heart covered in scars
Every scar remind me I done paid that price
You say ride or die, but I heard that before
Now I’m fighting my feelings, can’t open that door

⸻

[Verse 1]
Late nights, thinking ‘bout the things you said
Now it’s silence where you used to lay your head
Gave you real love, you gave me lies instead
Now I see red flags every step I tread

I was all in, you was halfway there
I was fighting for us, you ain’t even care
Now I’m cold-hearted, yeah it ain’t fair
But I learned my lesson, I’m aware

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
Every promise sound the same now
Every “I love you” just a game now
Tryna heal but I don’t know how
You broke me down, I don’t trust now

⸻

[Chorus]
I’m scared to love again, I been through too much pain
Every time I let ‘em in, they leave me in the rain
Got my guard up high, can’t let nobody in
Say you different, but they all just play pretend

I’m scared to love again, heart covered in scars
Every scar remind me I done paid that price
You say ride or die, but I heard that before
Now I’m fighting my feelings, can’t open that door

⸻

[Verse 2]
I see your love, yeah it feel so real
But my past got me questioning how to feel
You ain’t them, but I’m stuck in defense
Every move you make got me tense

I don’t wanna hurt you, that’s the truth
But I’m battling scars from my youth
Tryna trust, but it’s hard to do
When betrayal all I ever knew

⸻

[Bridge]
Maybe one day I’ll let you in
Maybe one day I’ll trust again
But right now I’m just healing slow
Tryna find a heart I used to know

⸻

[Chorus - Outro]
I’m scared to love again, I been through too much pain
Every time I let ‘em in, they leave me in the rain
Got my guard up high, can’t let nobody in
But deep inside, I still hope it wins…
