I fold my heart like a letter I'll never send Read it alone, then I start again I rehearse love in a silent room But freeze when it's real and you step too soon I've been living in a place between yes and no Every dream feels close, but I move too slow If I reach for you, will the truth show through? Or will I ruin the best thing I never knew? L don't trust the light when it finds my face I'm scared of the love, I don't think I deserve to take I don't want to be lonely But I don't know how to be close I'm scared if you hold me You'll feel what I hate the most I want you to know me While I'm learning to be me I'm breaking the silence slowly And choosing to believe in me I'm learning. I'm learning How to let love stay I'm learning. I'm learning Not to run away I'm measuring my worth in the gaps I see All the things I was almost brave enough to be I chase perfection just to feel safe I didn't blame my fear when I hesitate I hear your voice and my chest goes tight Like love is a test I failed tonight How I want to believe I could let you stay But I've been more reason to walk away If I let you in, will you stay when you see? I'll still learning how to be me I don't want to be lonely But I don't know how to be close I'm scared if you hold me You'll feel what I hate the most I want you to know me While I'm learning to be me I'm breaking the silence slowly And choosing to believe in me I'm learning. I'm learning How to let love stay I'm learning. I'm learning Not to run away I'm tired of feeling the girl I am Like loving me was never the plan If I wait much longer, I'll disappear Still full of love, but ruled by feel So if I fall, let it be out loud Not in my head, not lost in the crowd I'd rather be real than perfectly safe I'd rather be broken and never be brave I don't want to be lonely I don't want to hide anymore If you see right through me I'll still be standing at the door I want you to know me While I'm learning to be me I'm breaking the silence slowly And choosing to believe in me I'm learning. I'm learning How to let love stay I'm learning. I'm learning Not to run away
