Open

As you open yourself up for love, 
You realize that you are getting something else,
But you try to make like it is what you are looking for,
Cause you know how it feels to have your heart broke,
And it seem like the longer you stay, 
The more you hate him,
The more he lie, 
The more you really wish he would die,
And as you realize what you are wishing for,
You realize this not you,
This is not who you use to be,
And you then want to go back to your old self,
But he want you to stay the same,
He like what he done to you,
He like the lies he told you,
But he try to make you see,
See that to him they are not lies,
But you realize you open yourself to this,
And you also can close yourself out.
