​Maybe I was wrong about you all this time

​Maybe I was wrong about you all this time
Maybe you were exactly as kind
As you seemed to be...
Why was that so damn hard
For me to believe
I suppose it's all the kindness 
I had not seen
And all those harsh places 
That I had been...
Before we met
Jaded 
Yeah
Aren't we all a bit?
Love kicks our asses and then we're scared
To get up from it
And try again
I thought I wanted to be done with it

So I imagined you
Were like the rest
Even at your best
You'd probably fuck me over if given the chance...
Jaded
Yeah
But aren't we all 
A little
But perhaps I was wrong about you
Perhaps you're the one 
That would have seen it through
If I'd given you a chance to do
Any of the things 
You promised to...
It was just too damn hard to believe
That you could be
For real.
But maybe you were 
Maybe you 
Still are.
