Everytime

Said this wouldn’t happen
Guess I was completely wrong 
Was afraid what could happen
And still didn’t see it coming

I fell for the lies 
And sweet nothings
Just to be 
Hurt again 

Happily forever after
Doesn’t exist for me 
When things go right 
They gotta go wrong 

This time 
I want thing 
To end in the
Way I want 

I should of 
protected myself 
I was so foolish that 
I fell for it again 

Cause when I’m in love 
I forget everything 
And end up wanting 
You instead of me 

I’m scared that 

If I hurt myself one more time 
I might just end up broken
