Songbird.queen - Not Used to Affection

Verse 1)
Empty streets, cold concrete
Woke up in the hospital

Incomplete
Police and doctors, a blurry scene
Another scar, another scream

(Chorus)
Not used to affection, a stranger's touch
Years of walls built up, saying too much
Is this real? Can love be true?
You say you care, but baby, what if I hurt you?

(Verse 2)
Foster mom's fury, a childhood game
Beatings for nothing whispered my name
Social services, a savior's hand
But the memories linger, like shifting sand

(Chorus)
Not used to affection, a stranger's touch
Years of walls built up, saying too much
Is this real? Can love be true?
You say you care, but baby, what if I hurt you?
(Bridge)
Nightmares and tears, a constant tide
Flashbacks rewind, can't seem to hide
Caramel skin, blemishes I see
A constant reminder of what used to be

(Chorus)
Not used to affection, a stranger's touch
Years of walls built up, saying too much
Is this real? Can love be true?
You say you care, but baby, what if I hurt you?

(Verse 3)
Strong arms hold me, a safe embrace
Panic attacks fade, leaving no trace
Maybe someday, I'll let you in
Learn to trust again, let the healing begin

(Outro)
Not used to affection, but baby I'm trying
To open my heart, beneath the endless crying
With every touch, a little less afraid
Maybe someday, love won't feel so betrayed
