I painted my heart black
I was far too insecure
Though as we were you
We didn't see it
You couldn't see it in my eyes
The suffering the compromise
I thought this was love
but it was only chemical
I am still addicted
You gave up and weened on to another
I painted my heart black to be so unsure
I forget now what it is like to be the essence of fear
