Just a Fool - ArlenaZara
Should've known it from the start
You can't fix a broken heart
With someone else's pieces
Love don't work and need increases
I gave you everything I had
You took it all and called it bad
Called me crazy
Called me clingy
Now I see
I was just easy
You told me I was too much
Too much love, too much touch
Too many questions, too many calls
Too many times I broke your falls
But you never caught me once
Not a single time, not a single chance
I was falling, you were watching
Now I see what I was botching
I was just a fool, just a fool
Thinking you were following some golden rule
Thinking love meant sticking around
Even when you let me down
I was just a fool, just a fool
Thinking I could change you, thinking I could school
You on how to be a good man
But you never had a plan
To be anything but cool
I was just a fool
I made excuses for every lie
Made myself small just to get by
Didn't wanna lose you, didn't wanna fight
Thought if I was perfect, I'd be right
For you, for us, for this whole thing
But you can't make a dead bird sing
And you can't make a cheater stay
By loving all their pain away
I was just a fool, just a fool
Thinking you were following some golden rule
Thinking love meant giving more and more
While you just walked out the door
I was just a fool, just a fool
Thinking if I waited, if I played it cool
You'd finally see what you had
But you were always gonna treat me bad
I was just a fool
The worst part isn't what you did
The worst part isn't hurt
The worst part is I stayed so long
And the worst part is I let you steal my soul
And I sang it anyway
I sang it anyway
I was just a fool, but I'm not anymore
I'm walking out that same damn door
You walked through a thousand times
Leaving me behind
I was just a fool, but fools can learn
And I'd learn you, daughter
Love by bleeding for someone
Who was never holding a gun
Just a fool
But not anymore
