The Past

In the quiet darkness
I sit and stare at the wall
thinking about you
and how scared I am

I'm scared it's all going to go wrong
like it did with everyone else
It's a constant fear
in the back of my mind

It makes me doubt
the relationship we have
and it makes me doubt
the way you feel for me

It causes me
to retreat into myself
and hide my feelings
so that you don't get too close

The thought that lurks in the back of my mind
makes me scared to get involved
in case I get hurt again
like I did in the past

The past comes back to haunt me
and ruin everything I have
and it makes me doubt you
and doubt what we have together
