Things I Didn't Believe

I didn't believe that I could feel this way,
A way that hurts almost everyday.
The pain I feel all to often,
Makes my heart soften.
Because it hurts,
It feels all to great.
As you keep me in my place.

I didn't believe that anyone could love me so,
I believed it wouldn't be so hard to go.
So I prayed at night for it to end,
That until you claimed my heart to mend.
Your love lifted me up,
Now please don't let me drop.

I didn't believe that I could care,
until you came to tear,
every wall it took so long to build.
It's okay, it was a good thing to kill.

So while I didn't believe I could feel
I know now that it was a fine habit, a very good deal.
So I'll continue
And hope to get better.
With you by my side
What even matters?
