I knew better

I knew better

I knew better

To believe that you could love me

I knew better

I knew better

But I let my heart run free

We did this once

It was a car wreck

Spinning out

No chance to correct

The flames were high

The smoke was thick

I should’ve walked

But I fell for the trick

You left me broken

Just a shattered soul

Like a mirror cracked

Never whole

Your words were sweet

But they took their toll

Left me drowning in a deep

Dark hole

You called my name

And I fell again

Like a moth to fire

Knowing the end

Fast for nothing

Just to pretend

I’d be the one to make you bend

I knew better

I knew better

To believe that you could love me

I knew better

I knew better

But I let my heart run free

You called my name

And I fell again

But I knew better
