Don't Fall Down

A long time ago someone once told me
"Don't look back, or you'll fall down"
I never realized it was true
Until I looked back
And I fell for you
Cuz even the brightest lights
Have the darkest secrets
You took my soul
Like I never needed it
No more dreams
Further down it seems
I can't reach you
I'm too far down
"Don't look back, or you'll fall down"
I looked back
To something worse than a frown
I saw you cry
The hurt I saw in each eye
Made me die a little on the inside
I looked back because I love you
But you're not what you used to be
You've fallen for the trap
Only I can see
"Don't look back, or you'll fall down."
I saw you
I saved you
You hurt me
You killed me
I felt so silly for looking back,
Felt so stupid, like a clown
"Don't look back, of you'll fall down"
