Vulnerable

Don’t think I’m afraid;
In the end I let you read this 

Don’t think I am weak; 
I’ve been through hell 
and walked out smoking  
 
Don’t think you’re just another guy;
You may think that’s true;
The fact is going even 24 hours? 
I’m already missing you; 

Don’t think I only see a handsome face;
It’s what you say, how you say it;
That’s what drives me wild,
leaves me flying like crazy;

Don’t think I’m not a little broken; 
I’ve got some painful scars; 
The rhythm behind my dance,
they’re mixed in my wildfire;  

Don’t think that I’m fragile 
I can handle pain, without a word
swallow tears and walk away

Don’t think that this is easy,
vulnerable is damn hard.
