i don't want to be right

i don't want to feel the same stupidity I felt last time 
when i first fell in love
i call myself out ahead of time to numb 
the heartbreak as it comes
i can already hear the voice inside my head saying things
that shouldn't be said 
if i want this to work out 
for real this time

i just fear knowing i'm right so much 
it pains me to prevent certain people
from entering my life before i even let them
have a chance to prove themselves 

and that's where i have to be okay with being 
wrong
what i fear most than being 
right
is knowing when to accept i am 
wrong 

i'm more scared at the fact that 
somebody might prove me 
wrong 
because what do we do after that ?

i'll dip my toe in the deep end
but i need to saved by you whenever
i'm drowning in doubt
i won't let myself feel stupid knowing i was 
wrong 
for being with someone like 
you
