Fool Me Once (Long version)

(ooooooohhhh) [Verse 1] She came in like a wildfire, burning bright and fast, But underneath the passion, lies from her past, Took my heart for granted, left it in the cold, Now I'm wiser, the story's been told. [Pre-Chorus] I'm rebuilding from the ashes, learning to be strong, No more chasing shadows, where I don't belong, Her spell is broken, I'm breaking free, No more illusions, just clarity. [Chorus] Won't let her in to hurt again, (Wounds that never heal) Wounds that never heal, the scars blur, I won't be misled, my heart to mend, (Dreams that turned to dust) Dreams that turned to dust, in my head. [Verse 2] She spun tales of love, like silk in the wind, But beneath the surface, deception grinned, Took my trust as a game, played it with finesse, Now I'm reclaiming my heart, finding peace in the mess. [Pre-Chorus] I'm standing tall, on solid ground, No more lost illusions, no more going round, Her echoes fade, in the distance far, I'm closing doors, on what once was a scar. [Chorus] Won't let her in to hurt again, (Wounds that never heal) Wounds that never heal, the scars blur, I won't be misled, my heart to mend, (Dreams that turned to dust) Dreams that turned to dust, in my head. [guitar solo] [Bridge] Time has a way of revealing the truth, Lessons learned, in the trials of youth, I've found my voice, in the silence of her lies, No more looking back, no more silent cries. [Chorus] Won't let her in to hurt again, (Wounds that never heal) Wounds that never heal, the scars blur, I won't be misled, my heart to mend, (Dreams that turned to dust) Dreams that turned to dust, in my head. [Outro] Never again, the past won't define, I'll write my story, with a heart that's mine, No more illusions, no more regret, Never again, I won't forget. (ooooooohhhh) [Chorus] Won't let her in to hurt again, (Wounds that never heal) Wounds that never heal, the scars blur, I won't be misled, my heart to mend, (Dreams that turned to dust) Dreams that turned to dust, in my head.
