Dodging Bullets

from Weary Eyes EP by Valere

lyrics

Baby, I held my torch up so high
You fuelled the flames, fuelled the fire
Then you blew them out
I gave my love, gave my best, gave my time
Lost my heart, I lost my power, lost my mind
You took it all
But I got it back

Did you think I'd stay forever?
Strung around, tightly tethered?
Oh, this heart, you'll never hold
Now I've got my self together
And frankly, I deserve much better
Oh, this heart, you'll never hold

I kept myself in the dark, love was blind
I settled for black and white
Invisible, invisible
But you can't hide for too long
Out in the open, your faults and your weakness
I reasoned, defended
I almost caught the bullets
You took it all
But I got it back

Did you think I'd stay forever?
No, I dodged a bullet
