Triggered Me

It hit me like a dagger
It made me run like the wind
It dawned on me I'm weak
It was quite a trigger

Triggered me to cry
Triggered me to lose
Triggered me to break
Triggered me

All these strikes blow my ego
All the past I left buried deep
All the sorrow I already let go
All came rushing back

Triggered me to cry
Triggered me to lose
Triggered me to break
Triggered me

The past strikes, the past lies
The past pains, the past insecurities
The past abuse, the past neglect
The past love, the past me

Triggered me to cry
Triggered me to lose
Triggered me to break
Triggered me

I am worn out, shaken and stirred
I would rather fix it but cannot
I am enough but really not
I wanna forget, shut down, move on

Triggered me to cry
Triggered me to lose
Triggered me to break
Triggered me

Been here too many times before.
What is there for me to know?
I see a good person no one wants.
Why can't fate leave it behind?

Triggered me to cry
Triggered me to lose
Triggered me to break
Triggered me

Come Full Circle

Sometimes it's okay to be weak
Sometimes I think you want me to be perfect
Sometimes I wish I never showed that side of me
Sometimes it's best to just mask it all.

I didn't see it coming
You have fallen out of love
I keep blaming myself
But is it really my fault?

You say you did not want to hurt me
You wanted to try another lover
You struggle with your own monsters
You felt overwhelmed and weak.

But I really understand how you feel
I miss you up to the last minute we loved
You protected me from the pain
I honor you for your honesty.

I hold on to a hope for us
Because I already know we'd be great
You said you needed to figure it out
I feel for you more than anything.

I know if you find yourself
We'd both go full circle
But if you would rather not be with me
I wish you well ma cherie amour.

Let's Love

Let's love as though there's no tomorrow
Let's love like we've never loved before
Let's love and live happy
Let's love and work through adversity
Let's love and never let it go

No roles to play
No rules to set or follow
No rights or wrongs

I love you and it still tingles
I am fully aware of its strength
I will carry it with me forever

We don't have an American dream
We made it out here on our own
We finally found each other

It's all I ever wanted
It caught me by surprise
It makes me feel alive

I want a life with you
I know it's worth jumping
I think we'll make it good
