I said that I’m a grenade

So stay away

But you’re grenade-proof.

This concept is new.

I told you I’m not worth anything

And you asked me why I’m lying

I’m scared, and I know why.

My future is uncertain, but I promise to try.

I can’t believe that when you saw my bad side

You didn’t leave, you didn’t hide.

Yes, I share my book with everyone

But no one knows this much.

Every dark secret, every hidden side

All my stories, all my lies

You said ‘okay,’ and told me I’m strong.

You refuse to believe I’m not good enough.

Blind belief, that’s what you called it

I can run away, or put both feet in.

I’m panicked I’ll hurt you, like I always do

But you’re grenade-proof.
