Be Free

My heart was crying out And blood has poured over I've invested so much in us And now I'm the wounded soldier I am over it all and I'm no longer trying Now you are alone and the only one crying I've decided hearts divided was the best recommendation My best choice was for me to be my own representation I realized that you realized, I was the only one for you But it was too late Your heart had already denied the truth I tried and tried But now my happiness beared the proof We had no way to know what the future held But it was no longer holding us together Instead we were separate birds with two different sets of feathers Not even the same breed anymore So your love is no longer what I needed to soar No codependency You are you and I am me You always wanted to be free And now you have been freed.
