bulletproof

I took the vest off because you asked me to Like love was supposed to hurt this much I left my chest open in front of you And you didn’t even try to look away You saw exactly where it would break me You saw exactly what I was giving you And instead of stopping me You just let me stand there and trust you I took my bulletproof vest off for you And you shot me like you were proving a point No warning, no hesitation, nothing human in it Just the sound and the way you watched me fall I gave you the one thing I never survive losing The one thing I protect from everyone else You didn’t even pretend to love me You just wanted to know you could destroy me You didn’t want love You wanted damage You didn’t want me You wanted a target I took my bulletproof vest off for you Because you said you wanted something real But the real version of me just made it easier So you could see how easy I am to kill
