Lyrics

I didn't lock my heart away
I just learned where to place it
I don't fall for every spark
I let things show their basics
I used to think being careful
Meant I was afraid
Now I know protecting peace
Isn't running away
Pre-Chorus
I don't confuse attention
With being seen
I let things grow slowly
If they're clean
Chorus
I'm still open, still smart
I don't give away my core
I let love reach my hands
But not my floor
I don't close
I don't guard
I just know who I am
Still open, still smart
Verse 2
I don't rush into connection
To fill the space
I don't stay just to be chosen
I choose my place
I learned trust isn't instant
It earns its stay
I let actions speak first
Then I decide
Pre-Chorus
I don't fear being alone
I fear losing myself
So I stay aligned
With what I felt
Chorus
I'm still open, still smart
I don't fold under charm
I don't trade my balance
For someone's arms
I don't close
I don't harden
I love with intention
Still open, still smart
Bridge (soft drop, almost spoken)
Wisdom didn't harden me
It freed me
Final Chorus
I'm still open, still smart
And I feel secure
I don't need to rush love
To feel sure
I don't shrink
I don't part
I stay present and clear
Still open, still smart
Outro
Aware
At ease
