By Now
A/N: A song about someone wanting to stop their abuse

By now I should have realized
By now I should have woken up
From my dream
I must been sleeping a thousand years

(chorus)
By now I should of let you go
Made sure I wasn't hurt
Instead I told myself that
Being with you was okay
And now the damage cannot be undone

Why? Why did I lie?
I said I could fly
Touch the sky
Now I'm going to die

I felt I could do anything I wanted
Because I had you
You screwed me up so so bad
The wounds won't heal

(chorus)

By now
By now....
I need to leave you
What a slow realization!
I can't have you
You are destroying me
From the inside out
It's tearing me up horribly

(chorus)

By now I should have realized
By now I should have woken up
I said I could fly
Now I'm going to die
By now
By now....
I need to leave you
You are destroying me
From the inside out
It's tearing me up horribly
By now...
