Terrible..

I know it is.

How this used to be the norm..

How I'd just let you walk on in

and take my world by storm..

How I let you control me,

How you played your twisted games

And then,

When all was said and done

How you'd hand me all the blame

And I would take it

Willingly

In my open arms

(I'd never listen to anyone

when they said you did me harm.)

But once again I’d welcome you..

‘Come, tear apart my life’

I couldn’t see beyond you.

Beyond the pain and strife.

I’d hand you my heart, I’d let you break it

I’d give you my life, “Here you can take it..

‘Cause you know thats just the price I pay

It’s worth it, in the end

I’m so much better off this way

On you, I will depend.”

But over time I realized

You never did me good

Over time I opened up my eyes

Saw you the way I should...

Now don't you know that

I’ve got a life much bigger than you

And I’ve got a faith much stronger than you

I fought you once, and I know that I

Can take you down again

I know I would be lying

If I said that you’re not there

You’re in my life... to this day

But now, I just don’t care

You can try to make me doubt myself

But now I’m doubting you

And you can give me all your lies

But I know that they're not true

I can see right through you now

I know what you want from me

But I won’t give up who I am

To satisfy your pleas.

You can’t come in invited

‘Cause I won’t let you in.

And you can try to fight me

But I won’t let you win.

Terrible,

I know it is.

How this used to be the norm..

How I’d just let you walk on in

And take my world by storm?

Beautiful,

I know it is.

The change in status quo..

The life I lead on my own now..

Now that I’ve let you go.
