guarded

daniel, kevin

i've never been the kind to hold back

though i've never felt the burden before

and all these years i begged for vengeance

was only left with wanting more

but i can't be whole

'til i let all this anger go

the silent strain i've carried long enough. and i can't be with you

i don't even want to

i just wish your ghosts were gone

cause i'm ready to love

i've been guarded long enough. it's taken a lot to forgive you

oh it's taken me so long

i tried in vain to forget you

oh i tried everything

but i won't be free

'til i've made peace with never knowing

what went wrong and was the fault in me. and i can't be with you

i don't even want to

i just wish your ghosts were gone

cause i'm ready to love

i've been guarded long enough. i've been guarded long enough

i've been guarded long enough

i've been guarded long enough to know

i'm ready

i'm ready

i'm ready

i'm ready

i'm ready

i'm ready

i'm ready

i'm ready now.
