Wrong Target

Wrong Target

So he wants me to commit, but for me that's the hardestĀ 

Cause I'm convinced most of my life Cupid shot at wrong targetsĀ 

So out of fear, out of pain of another misplaced arrow

I retreat before defeat I sure as hell wasn't gonna catch that-- errorĀ 

I stop before IĀ accidentally let him inĀ 

Before I mistakenly find refuge in the place that's less than love but more than friends

What's the point of building memories that will last forever

If you and I both know that we're only temporarily togetherĀ 

I'm afraid of coming this far together to hear that one day i have to finish aloneĀ 

To go through the process playing house but never quite becoming a homeĀ 

Afraid of getting so use to you that every text that comes through my phone, I hope it's youĀ 

I'm afraid of falling head first in love, resulting in fractured trustĀ 

Because stupidly I believed you and I we're on the verge of becoming usĀ
