I Loved You Without Armor - ArlenaZara
I let you in, no walls, no shields
Gave my heart the way it feels
Every truth, every fear I showed
Every tear that no one knows
I trusted you with every part
Opened the doors to my fragile heart
But love without armor can break
And yours was a storm I couldn't take
I gave you my all, I gave you my soul
Loved you completely, made myself whole
But you walked away, left me exposed
And now I'm learning what love really knows
I loved you without armor
Bared my heart to your hands
Fell for a love that was never mine
Built castles in the sand
I trusted too much, I gave too deep
Now I'm learning to rise from the pain
I loved you without armor
And it left me scarred, but alive again
I stood by you in silent nights
Hid my tears from prying eyes
I forgave the things I shouldn't have
Hoped that our love could last
Every smile I wore was a mask
Every laugh a desperate ask
I gave my soul to someone who
Left my heart feeling cold and blue
I gave you my all, I gave you my soul
Loved you completely, made myself whole
But you walked away, left me exposed
And now I'm learning what love really knows
I loved you without armor
Bared my heart to your hands
Fell for a love that was never mine
Built castles in the sand
I trusted too much, I gave too deep
Now I'm learning to rise from the pain
I loved you without armor
And it left me scarred, but alive again
If love could be safe, love could heal
I'd still give my heart, still feel
But I've learned to guard what's mine
Without shutting out the light that shines
I loved you without armor
And I'll love again
But I'll be wise, I'll hold my heart
I'll stand my ground and see the truth behind the lies
I trusted too much, I gave too deep
But now I rise, I won't weep in vain
I loved you without armor
And I'm stronger for the pain
I gave my love without disguise
I let it fall, I let it rise
I loved you without armor
And I'm learning how to survive
