Willing to Figure Out
When you found me, I was alone and ready to just give in
I was suffering from a terrible heart break
I had promised to never let myself fall again
Cause it only seems to turn out to be painful mistake
There is no such thing as a fairytale
And forever only lasts until you find someone new
Falling in love is just another way to set yourself up to fail
And there’s no true meaning behind the words “I love you”
At least, that’s how I felt before you came along
I just couldn’t handle getting hurt anymore
Just as I would begin to feel strong
I’d get crushed and it always hurt worse than before
But there was one night that took all of that pain away
The one night that made my whole past disappear
Nothing in my life has been the same since that day
Cause ever since then, I’ve had you here
I found myself explaining everything I had been through
Then, I listened to a story almost the same as the one I told
At first, it scared me that I was able to open up to you
But then, I suddenly realized that my world was no longer cold
In that single moment, we both knew we were meant to be
And neither one of us tried to put up a fight
We had made a perfect beginning for our love story
And it was all right in front of us, written in black and white
But like all stories, this one has a twist
One that nobody could have ever guessed
Cause I wanted the painful chapters to be the part everyone missed
And I thought, maybe they wouldn’t be real, if I never confessed
At first, we were so sure that we were meant to be
It seemed as if we’d been looking for each other all along
Everything fit together so perfectly
I just wish I could understand exactly what went wrong
How did life pass us by so fast?
It hasn’t seemed like enough time for us to have been through this much
Now, we’re just another piece of each other’s past
How did we not see things falling so far out of touch?
Will it ever go back to the way it was before?
We both know scars heal but never disappear
Will the memories we’ve made be impossible to ignore?
Are there even still pieces of you that want me here?
I’ve tried so many times to forget you
But I’m just not ready to let this go
I don’t want to have to start over new
I’m perfectly content with what I already know
We’ve been together for quite awhile
Maybe there were a few bumpy parts of the route
But our love has made it through every tribulation and trial
And we have never had a problem that we weren’t willing to figure out!
I was suffering from a terrible heart break
