Lost Myself

I lost myself trying to find some truth in what you said
Kept making up excuses for your actions in my head
Kept replaying the conversations, reliving moments that passed
Thinking I had you so close, but you slipped from my grasp...
Lost my sleep and my dignity trying to figure you out
would've waited forever if you asked without a doubt
but you didn't want my loving, it was plain to see
that while I broke, you were thriving in my misery...
I lost myself questioning which part of you was true
wasting my time loving someone who only made me blue
and the one day it dawned on me that you're a waste of time
and the only heart that was broken here, was mine
so, I'm picking up the pieces and gonna get some glue
put it back together, this time, without you...
