Leave Me Be

Leave me be, leave me in peace
I'll cry on my pillow and bleed on my sheets
Made my bed and I'll lie in it
I'll take myself out of this world before I die in it

A heart full of pain, I can't seem to remove
I usually sleep to ignore my hurt, but I always dream of you
I can't get you out of my head, no matter how much I try
I've survived worse, and I haven't came this far just to die

I'm drinking to forget, but it makes me remember more
People asking how long were we together for?
as you were cheating with him, I guess I was never yours
After i'm done mourning, I'll find a girl I'm better for

I guess I wasn't good enough for you, even though I gave my all
But now I'm protected from all hurt because I've placed my wall
I won't be moving it anytime soon
I'm just dealing with my hearts pain and my minds doom

Leave me be, leave me in peace
I'll cry on my pillow and bleed on my sheets
Made my bed and I'll lie in it
I'll take myself out of this world before I die in it
