Bex Lindsey - Phoenix Lyrics

It's so hard to believe a guy who looks me in the eyes
And really cares what I have to say
It's so hard to believe a man who goes to shake my hand
And doesn't size me up from the waist

And I'm just so challenging to love
Or even just let someone in
'Cause the scars he left in my head tell me "you're lying"
And I'm doing the best I can to
Separate you from my past
But I need you to be patient with me

It's not fair
I'm trying hard
To tell myself
I'm worth so much more
Than the girl I was in makeup, crying on his floor

It's so hard to hold your hand when I'm
I'm looking for the plan
That you have hidden behind a smile
They say, "all scars fade with time"
But I hear his voice all the f*cking time
So let's start with I am broken, and with what you want

It's not fair
I'm trying hard
To tell myself
I'm worth so much more
Than the girl I was in makeup, crying on his floor
And the phoenix in me needs to know there's something more

Oh, hmm

And I'm doing the best I can to
Separate you from my past
But I need you to be patient with me
