I'm Glad I Didn't Break Your Heart

I'm glad I didn't break your heart The way you tore mine clean apart. I could've lied, I could've played, But I just watched you drift away. I stayed up nights with hollow dreams, While you stitched lies in silent seams. You walked away without a care, And left me drowning in the air. I held my ground, I kept it true, But I still bled because of you. You gave me scars you couldn’t see, But I’m glad I didn’t make you bleed. I could’ve crushed you, could’ve won, But chose to be the better one. Now I’m a ghost in my own skin, Wishing I had hurt you back then.
