I’d Rather
I’d rather learn to let go
Than to feel the pain
I’d rather see you go
Than walkthrough the rain
I’d rather be all alone,
Than to be foolishly insane
I’d rather be cold,
Than to feel love in vain
I’d rather grow old,
Than to be filled with false expectations
I’d rather not trust my heart
Than to experience desperation
I’d rather stop from the start,
Than to be blinded by a fantasy
I’d rather walk away from you
Than to let you hurt me
I’d rather not say the words to you
So afraid I am to be laughed at
I’d rather not love you hopelessly,
Than to let myself fall apart
