On display, an open heart for the world to see By the way, you fill me with your uncertainty Now I can’t think or try to speak anymore Only time, will tell if you’ll be the first to stay The fault is mine, for letting hope get me all the same Now I can’t sleep for fear of what I could see
And I know it’s wrong To let you walk into my heart, into my home But maybe I’m sick and I’m tired Of feeling alone, if you’re not my own At least I can say, as long as you stay You give me better days.
A pearl inside a shell She takes your attention like nothing else And how am I supposed to feel? Like I’m made of glass and I’m hardly real
And I know it’s wrong To let you walk into my heart, into my home But maybe I’m sick and I’m tired Of feeling alone, if you’re not my own At least I can say, as long as you stay You give me better days Better days
I should’ve seen it all the same Every look upon your face
I guess I was wrong To let you walk into my heart, into my home But maybe I’m sick and I’m tired Of feeling alone, and you’re not my own So all I can say is you’ve chosen her instead And there’ve been better days
