[Verse 1]
When I was young, my momma told me, "Loving can be lonely
Not everyone's like you, ain't got the heart that you do"
But I had to learn the hard way, lessons can be costly
And I spent more than I had, on love that didn't last
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm sorry if you think I'm standoffish, I swear it's not you
I'm guarded and I know it, oh, darlin', don't mean to be cruel
[Chorus]
I've got trust issues, and I know we all do
But I think I'm too wounded to dive in and that ain't fair to you
I'm tired of bein' used, and maybe that ain't you
But I can't take the chance when I'm damaged, it's true
[Post-Chorus]
I've got trust issues
Oh, yeah
Mmm
[Verse 2]
See, I've been tryna understand it, seems I got a habit
Of pushin' others away, thinkin' no one will stay
So I gotta leave today, I don't wanna make the same mistakes
Not with you, no, not with you
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm sorry if you think I'm being selfish, can't help it, I'm done
Fightin', feelin' helpless, oh, darlin', I knew this would come
[Chorus]
I've got trust issues, and I know we all do
But I think I'm too wounded to dive in and that ain't fair to you
I'm tired of bein' used, and maybe that ain't you
But I can't take a chance when I'm damaged, it's true
[Post-Chorus]
I've got trust issues
Oh, yeah
[Outro]
Tell me you're mine and I try to believe you
Tell you I'm fine, but I know that you see through
All of these walls I've put up, I'll fucked this up
Yeah, you should just leave before I do
