I can let you go
and it really doesnt hurt me that bad
but when I think of all the broken dreams
thats when I start getting real mad.
Whenever the memories pop up
its easy for me to push them away
but I still cant push you out of my heart
I can't believe you treated me that way.
I don't understand what love means to you
you have a f-ed up way of thinking
to believe the only way you could keep me
was to break me down and make me nothing.
I had no problem loving
I thought you knew that all along
I believed giving you everything proved it
but somehow you thought that was all wrong.
I don't know where we started going wrong
you can blame me all you want
I tried my best to please you
I know the problem wasnt my fault.
You made me who I am now
I am broken and lost inside
you promised you could make it better
but I guess it was all a lie.
I know I can be strong again
if nothing else to be better than you wanted
I know I have to do this for me
im not walking away from here broken hearted.
You said no one else would ever love me
I think thats just what you wanted me to believe
you told me I would never be anything
and I guess I can only be me.
I think I can fall in love again
as long as i know he isn't like you
I dont really feel I have to look
it will find me when it is true.
I'm ready to prove you wrong
to do all of the things you said I never could
you thought that you had some hold on me
I left you when you didn't think I would.
I am sorry if I hurt you doing this
but I have to be me inside again
you always wanted to leave me alone
now that youre gone I actually have some friends.
I am going to build my dreams again
the ones I had a long time before you
the only regret I wil ever have I think
was believing I needed you to make them come true.
I know I'll always be connected to you
I see that when I look in our childrens eyes
you can still have your life with them
but it doesnt mean you have to be mine.
I am going to be stronger than you for once
i am going to build my life all alone
because I know inside me that I can
it gets so much easier having you gone.
