Bleeding Love
Adam Bertrand Lyrics

Closed off from love
I shut my heart away from love and did not allow love into my life.

I didn't need the pain
I did not want to feel the pain that comes with love, so I avoided love altogether.

Once or twice was enough
I had past experiences with love that were painful, and I did not want to go through that again.

And it was all in vain
My past experiences with love led to nothing and were meaningless.

Time starts to pass
As time goes by, I become more and more closed off to the idea of love.

Before you know it you're frozen
Eventually, I became completely numb and closed off to love.

But something happened
Something changed when I met you.

For the very first time with you
I experienced something with you that I had never felt before.

My heart melts into the ground
My heart became overwhelmed with emotion and love for you.

Found something true
I found something real and genuine with you.

And everyone's looking round
Other people noticed how much I had changed since being with you.

Thinking I'm going crazy
They thought I was acting out of character because of my newfound love for you.

But I don't care what they say
I do not care about other people's opinions because I know my love for you is real.

I'm in love with you
I have fallen deeply in love with you.

They try to pull me away
Other people are trying to persuade me not to be with you.

But they don't know the truth
They do not realize how much I love you and the impact you have had on me.

My heart's crippled by the vein
My heart has been damaged in the past by love, and I am afraid of being hurt again.

That I keep on closing
I try to keep my heart closed off to love, but I cannot help my feelings for you.

You cut me open and I
Your love has broken down my walls and allowed me to feel deeply for you.

Keep bleeding
My love for you continues to grow and overflow into every aspect of my life.

Trying hard not to hear
I try my best to ignore other people's doubts and criticisms regarding my love for you.

But they talk so loud
Their negativity is hard to ignore and often overshadows my love for you.

Their piercing sounds fill my ears
Their words and opinions are hurtful and invasive, making it hard to focus on my love for you.

Try to fill me with doubt
Other people try to make me doubt my love for you and question our relationship.

Yet I know that the goal
I understand that their goal is to break us apart and keep us from being together.

Is to keep me from falling
Their goal is to keep me from falling in love and being with you.

But nothing's greater than the rush that comes with your embrace
Your love and physical touch are more powerful than anything else and make me feel invincible.

And in this world of loneliness
In a world where I previously felt alone and disconnected, your love has brought me out of that darkness.

I see your face
I think of you constantly, and you are always on my mind.

And everyone around me
Other people continue to notice how much I have changed since being with you.

Thinks that I'm going crazy, maybe, maybe
Other people still believe that my love for you is irrational and that I am acting crazy.

And it's draining all of me
My love for you is so strong that it takes everything out of me and leaves me feeling drained.

Oh they find it hard to believe
Other people struggle to believe the depth of my love for you.

I'll be wearing these scars
I will carry the emotional scars of past hurt and heartbreak with me into our relationship.

For everyone to see
The evidence of my past hurt and pain will be visible to everyone, but I am willing to take that risk for my love for you.

You cut me open
Your love has broken down my walls and allowed me to be vulnerable and open with you.
