Since You'Re Perfect

I know you can't stand me anymore,
I know because of the way you acted when you walked out the door,
I don't want nor do I try to make you feel bad, "you know",
So the best thing I can do for you is to let you go,

Let you go before you end up hating me,
Let you go and let you be free,
I'm more than willing to work on my issues all the day long,
But, you're so unwilling and think you do no wrong,

I guess since you're perfect there's nothing for us to work on,
And since I'm the cause of all our problems soon you'll wake up and I'll be gone,
I don't want to make you feel bad a minute longer,
I'll tell you this these years I thought were in vain were'nt the actually made me stronger,

Never again will I put my heart out there,
On that I solemnly swear,
I'll never love anyone again,
I've said all I can say, So TRUCE, You WIN,.....
