If You'Re Reading This
If you're reading this
while trying to be strong
trying to hold on to whats right
while ignoring all thats wrong
If you can look at your skin
and find his mark
yet know it can't compare
to the one that's on your heart
If you're reading this
and it's hard to breathe
as emotions you harbored
are wiped on your sleeve
It's time to make changes
and admit the pain you're in
admit you're worth way more
than you'll ever be worth to him
Don't wait til it's too late
and we both know what I mean
I was once right where you are
my life in painful words on a screen
So from one girl to another
It's not too late to fix
you still have time to walk away
If you're reading this
