Unguarded Hearts

My heart was guarded

I built gates out of scars that they left behind

And it wasn’t a problem

Until you cut through the thorns that had grown wild

And I forget how to communicate

It’s like there’s nothing left for me to say

I feel like I’m running but I want to stay

I want to stay

So I pull at the armour around my heart

It’s disarming but I can’t stop

Until I’m free enough to love

Trying my best now

I’m rewriting the rules that I once lived by

But the whiplash hits harder

Every time I get caught up in your headlights

And I forget how to communicate

It’s like there’s nothing left for me to say

I feel like I’m running but I want to stay

I want to stay

So I pull at the armour around my heart

It’s alarming but I can’t stop

Until I’m free enough to love

With an unguarded heart

It’s so hard to open up,

Your eyes disarming but I can’t stop

Until I’m free enough to love

With an unguarded heart

Ohhhh

With an unguarded heart

Ooooooh

Ooooh

Ooooooh (with an unguarded heart)

Ooooooh

It’s so hard to open up

Take my armour I can’t stop

Guarded heart

An unguarded heart

So I pull at the armour around my heart

It’s alarming but I can’t stop

Until I’m free enough to love

With an unguarded heart

It’s so hard to open up,

Your eyes disarming but I can’t stop

Until I’m free enough to love

With an unguarded heart

With an unguarded heart

With an unguarded heart

With an unguarded heart

With an unguarded heart
