It's Not Gonna Work

You think when you're in it
It's what you want
But then you realize that your freedom
Was what you wanted all along
That you still wanna play the field
Or just make sure you're not really
Missing out on "The One"
Deep down inside you know that isn't really the reason
You're afraid of the exposure
The vulnerability of someone
Seeing the core of you
Seeing you emotionally naked
Seeing the bad and wondering about the good
The ugly side that we all have but some
Keep in check better than others
So you run and hide behind the wall of convenience
Hoping reality will not be
And you can continue playing the field
Denying your heart
Feeling lonely and confused
Because you knew he/she was "The One" from the start
But the feelings are so intense that even when you try to hide
They find you and hunt you in the middle of the night
So now you say
"I must get out"
It isn't quite so simple
The heart doesn't lie
The mind plays tricks on you
To protect the ego
But no matter how hard u fight
You cannot run from the truth of the matter
The heart always wins
