There was a time I thought I knew you
There was a time I thought you cared
I thought we were connected somehow
Yet we’ve only grown apart
I can’t say why or how
It seems like every relationship goes this way
It starts off interesting and new
The novelty fades
And I find myself with one less piece of my heart
How many times do you get burned
Before you stop playing with fire
How do I look at my heart
And see anything but the scars
Where do I belong
What do I want to do
What is my passion
Why do I get out of bed in the morning
And most fundamentally
Who am I
Promises of potential
I can be anything I want to be
Limits are supposed to only be in my head
How to overcome those limits
How to reach for the stars
And not trip on a piece of straw
I keep people at a distance
Am I protecting myself
Or simply putting my own happiness out of reach
