I'Ve Yet To Tell Myself the Truth

I have yet to tell myself the truth
that there no longer is a me
happily 
connected to a you

Cause I'm not sure I could handle it
or if I would survive
when I find
you called it quits

So I'll continue to live out the lie
with what is left 
of the dreams I had
at the time that all was right

That is why when it comes to you
I have yet to tell myself the truth
that when it comes to me
there no longer is a you
