I Was Brave

Sometimes I can’t decide if I love you or hate you 
I once believed you could make my dreams come true.
You hurt me so bad but I always stayed thinking it would be worth it.
I told myself all the time to be strong and quit
but I’m not a quitter, I fight for what I want
and when I no longer want I look for what I need, but my life’s in a knot
I need to untie myself from you and move on
the moment you left, you looked back and I was gone.
you thought it was going to chase you but you were wrong
here's your good bye, live your life cause its going to be long
let our date rest in its grave
because im glad its over and I was brave.
