Let My Heart Reopen

So sad, so sad
And so confused
These feelings that I have 
Are all about you

You helped me see
The things that I should change
And you helped my life 
And helped me rearrange

But now you resist me
And I feel the distance
It’s so hard to except it
Reality is a hard existence

So go, go away
I can do this without you
I never should have listened
I should have dismissed you

I can go back 
To the one I was before
I shouldn’t have opened my life
And my hearts door

So mad, so mad
That I let this happen
I will never, never again
Let my heart reopen
