The Changes In Me

This pain is tearing me apart 
This pain is molding me a new heart 
Its destroying who I once was 
And Im wary of what I will become

I watched you go 
I let you leave 
I killed myself 
For you to see 
I waited for you 
I held on to you 
I still havent let go 
And I know that I wont

What you did to me 
Wasnt just the emptiness, the pain 
It was what you taught me 
My incredible gain 
I wont hold on to my misery 
anymore

I cant believe how easy it was 
To tell myself that you'll be back 
That you needed to be free 
But you'd eventually come to me 
I held on to my hope 
And, of my faith, I never let go 
Just waiting for you 
To finally come home

What you did to me 
Wasnt just the emptiness, the pain 
It was what you taught me 
My incredible gain 
I wont hold on to my misery 
Anymore

You kissed me, I became immortal 
You left me, my soul died 
You missed me, I felt you again 
You came to me, now I am alive

That pain has torn me apart 
That pain has molded me a new heart 
It has destroyed who I once was 
Now I am wary of what I have become
