I run from those who try to give me the world
And run to broken people, to be their fix
And I’m just trying to figure out what is left of me
I showed you every side and it’s hard for you to get next to me
Which makes it harder for me to open up to you
So I tear you down to see what I’m made of
And I hope to have the power to build us back up
But you backed up
Due to my lack of love
But baby it was an act of love 
The only kind of love I get a reaction of
Because in the name of love 
I damn near went insane for love
