Safer Lyrics

Safer Lyrics
I know that I have issues.
I'll face them I swear.
I think i've overcome them then turn
They're still there.
I wish that I were different
I want to let go
But every time I try, there's my past
Saying no

Maybe it's all cause of dad,
His new kids, his new wife
Or Why not just blame mom
Who's been nuts my whole life

When you've felt so alone
Since the moment of birth,
And you've struggled to find
Your own true sense of worth
When you feel like there's no one
Across this whole earth
To depend upon, you carry on
Just like you always do,
Cause it's safer to rely on you
Oh it's safer to rely on you

I've seen a million movies
All selling 'true love'
A fantasy I'm not sure that
I'm worthy of
Caution to the wind
My heart's been on display
But still the end result is
It's not gone my way

So when I date a new guy,
Who's a deadbeat of jerk
At least I'm not so crushed
When it all doesn't work

When you once unafraid
Wore your heart on your sleeve
And the ones who you trust
Chose to just turn and leave
When each day it gets harder
To somehow believe
You will survive, so you strive
Just to keep up your guard
Cause it's safer to hold every card

I am out of control
I feel safe on the ground
I keep building up walls
But I wish to be found
A true contradiction
To which I am bound
As I keep on spinning
Around and Around

And I look at the people
Who've worked it all out
And I wonder why I'm
Still a bundle of doubt
And sometimes I want to
Just Stand up and Shout

Just commit and deal with it
Before your life flies by
Don't let your life fly by

But is it safer?
Maybe it's safer
If I don't try?
