I Wish I Didn't Listen


You told me things should be simple, I really wish they were
I've always known what I wanted, and now I’m not so sure

My life seems empty now, even with everything I’ve achieved
it's not enough to only have success, not enough for me
       
          I wish I didn't listen
                 when you told me love doesn't last
          I wish I didn't listen
                 you said keep my heart close to my chest
          I wish I didn't listen
                   it’s because of you I’m lonely,
                           I'm just too scared to love, and let someone love me
                           oh I'm too scared to love, and let someone love me

I worked so hard, you seemed proud, but my tears I kept inside
you said feelings were weak, so I learned to pretend and lie

I didn't see how hard you were, I was so insecure those days
I listened and trusted what you said, but now, I never feel safe
         
          I wish I didn't listen
                 when you told me love doesn't last
          I wish I didn't listen
                 you said keep my heart close to my chest
          I wish I didn't listen
               it’s because of you I’m lonely,
                       I'm too scared to love, and let someone love me
                       oh I'm too scared to love and let someone love me

                                 Now I’m struggling to find love
                                      and I’m trying to feel like I’m enough
                                 But when I close my eyes, I can’t bear
                                      all your words, that’s all I hear
                       
          I wish I didn't listen
                 when you told me love doesn't last
          I wish I didn't listen
                 you said keep my heart close to my chest
          I wish I didn't listen
               it’s because of you I’m lonely,
                       I'm too scared to love, and let someone love me
                       oh I'm too scared to love and let someone love me
