They Warned Me

I'm here in the moment, but wish I could go back
Back to the days when my innocence meant something
No fears, no lies, just normalcy at its best

I should have known better but being naive is apart of life
It's crazy to think that once upon a time, you were my high
Then you let me down, so fast and so low
How should I feel, where do I go?

They warned me, but they didn't tell me it would hurt this much
I thought I was different, I thought I could control my trust
But you made me feel good, so I let my guard down
Now my mistake reminds me everyday, it just lingers around

Trying to let go, but it's so hard
Every time I build myself up, you find a way to break me apart
I wish I could forget you, wish I could erase
Anything at all, just to ease the pain

Maybe one day my heart will repair itself
Because nothing is worse than living in a personal hell
I want to break out, I want to peace
Please please, just give me release

Fake a smile, it's just a phase
One day, everything will be okay...
