My Chance

Not talking to you gets easier everyday
Like a scar fading away
And the memory of you
Is better than talking to you, yourself
I've chained you up
Put you on a shelf
I don't feel anything
Is that good?
This numbness gives me more peace than you ever could
I don't want you anymore
Is that understood?
Gave you too many chances than I should
You were never good for me
I was blind then
But now I see
Now I have MY chance
My chance to be free

It's great that you're moving on to bigger and better things, Caleah. Though the fact that you gave that person "too many chances" is, I believe, a sign of better character than not giving a person enough of a shot. To be a little naive, concerning relationships with others, is better than being a little cold. Great lyric!

Yeah, I agree. However people always tell me my greatest weakness is, I'm "too nice". So sometimes even when people may use me or not treat me as well as they should; I always give them abundant of chances, especially when they hurt me and do it on purpose. Have to learn a balance on finally cutting them loose. Thanks for the comment!
