SHE - Risk Lyrics

I'm a shattered daughter
Raised by mother without a father
She told me the world is cold
Be trusting of no one

I lived in her shadow of love and protection
But at night my eyes were still cold
So I kept up the company of
Men who weren't good for me
Thinking I was in control
But when you shine brighter
Than those that are with you
They take all the fire from your soul

And you honestly don't even know how much it hurts to love you
It's nothing that you do or did I'm just used to abuse
I'm afraid to let my guard down and show you my truth
Because every time I did I just end up getting used
You've got me thinking
Are you worth the risk
You worth the risk
You worth the risk
Are you worth my heart shattering into pieces

Baby are you worth the risk
You worth the risk
You worth the risk
Because if I fall for you I don't think I can get out of that pit
So baby are you worth the risk

Relationship after 'lationship always seemed to end in a theme
The shine wore off
Love lost its soft gleam
Took off my rose glasses
Turned diamond to plastic
Their flaws were way worse than they seemed
How could I do this again
I was so desperate for a friend
That I reduced my standards low it seemed
Just as I'm ready to break again
You walk and look directly through me
Said your light matches my light's gleam

And you honestly don't even know how much it hurts to love you
It's nothing that you do or did I'm just used to abuse
I'm afraid to let my guard down and show you my truth
Because every time I did I just end up getting used
You've got me thinking
Are you worth the risk
You worth the risk
You worth the risk
Are you worth my heart shattering into pieces

Baby are you worth the risk
You worth the risk
You worth the risk
Because if I fall for you I don't think I can get out of that pit
So baby are you worth the risk

If I take this risk this'll be the last risk that I take
If I open my heart to you I must be sure it won't break
If I end up mistaken it's the last mistake that I'll make
Because this trench called love is too deep and I cannot escape

But baby you're worth the risk
You're worth the risk
You're worth the risk
Baby you're worth the risk
Oh
You're worth the risk
You're worth the risk
Baby you're worth the risk
