All of My Ex Girlfriends Worst Nightmare

Some people won't like what I write here
This is every one of my exes worst nightmare
I can't lie, there's been Many of you 
But i'm no longer in love with any of you

I've found the peace in myself I didn't have before
I answered to the demons that were at the door
I embraced them and took them to their death
I think about love, I'm not sure if I've truly been there yet

I was so desperate for love, I'd accept it from anywhere
Smiles are few and far between, but I've shed many tears 
I spent so much of my life trying to find what was missing
But I've finally found it, and that's love within

Here I am pouring my heart out, when you all know me for my lack of emotion
I'd bottle everything up, until it became a crashing explosion
None of you saw the real me, because I would mask what's broken
My heart was closed, I was too scared to have it open 

Looking back, I don't think I gave any of you all of me
No one got behind it, but one or two touched the wall around me
That scared me so much, I had to push you away as far as possible
I was a good guy who had a lot of flaws, scars and obstacles

The sex was great, but I needed something more
My mother not being around, left me so insecure
My parents put me in care, so why would anyone else want me
Depression had me locked up, so my heart couldn't be free

I was unable to express myself so love remained a fear
I had to write this in order for my pain to repair
I'm sorry I didn't admit all of this sooner
But now you're all a part of my past, and I'm focused on the future 

Some people won't like what I had to write here
This is every one of my exes worst nightmare
I can't lie, there's been Many of you 
But i'm no longer in love with any of you
