I have a handle on it.

Yes, I have a handle on it.

Before I knew how to trust

And now I'm too scared to trust anyone.

I knew how to fall so hard.

Or maybe I didn't know how to fall silently.

But I've learned.

Don't worry about me.

I have a handle on it.



Oh yes, I have a handle on it.

Yesterday I knew what a broken heart felt like

Today I'm reminiscing the pain

Tomorrow I'll own my heart again

And not you.

So yes, I'll have a handle on it.



I'll have a handle it.

I won't look when you walk by.

I won't talk to you every chance I get

And I'll never become vulnerable.

My feelings will mean nothing.

Only when it starts to hurt.

I thought I had a handle on it.



Oh how I wish I did.

I fell hard

When I wasn't even supposed to fall

I wasn't supposed to care.

You were.

I'm tired of all the things I'm feeling

Because I remember, in the end,

They'll cause me the hurt.

I need a handle on it.

Oh please, give me a handle on it.
