Day By Day

You can't tell someone they love you I couldn't no matter what I tried to do But the way you said it was over…seemed like you never did care And in my heart the pain I could not bare So in turn, to my wrist I took a blade Now there's this huge mess I've made Not a single way out And you are all I can think about Things have gotten so out of hand Some I do, others I don't understand Now here I am stuck in this place All this time and confined space Still for me it didn't take long To know I went about this all wrong And now I'm not sure how it'll all work out Still some things I can't help but doubt When we first met we felt a flame Then when I got here on you I tried to place the blame But it didn't take long for me to accept my shame Knowing now once I leave things won't be the same Not sure where that might leave the two of us If when I leave I'll have a ride home or have to catch the bus Either way one thing is for sure After this I vow for things to be different and pure Not really sure with what I'll start Afraid of the trouble I could get into with my heart But this much I do know I'll take it one day at a time, take things slow Try to get my life back on track Cuz to this place I'll never come back I never really wanted to die Believe it or not that's not a lie I just let my emotions get the best of me But that's not who I am, now who I want to be I am a young lady so strong And in this place I don't belong And now that I've taken a few steps back My bags I am ready to pack I haven't put a fight and curse After all I've been thru far worse And if I got thru that, I'll get thru this In time there are things I will miss But I know eventually I'll be okay I just have to take it day by day!!!
