If you ever come back one day,
Don't come with words you used to say.
Don't promise things you couldn't keep,
Or love me light when I love deep.
Come with truth, come with scars,
Come as you are—not who you were.
Because I've changed, I'm not the same,
I won't restart a broken flame.
I'll listen once, I'll hear you through,
But I won't lose myself for you.
Because love, I learned, should never break
The very soul it tries to take.
