The Missed Call

As I lay in bed all alone I fight myself to not pick up that phone Too many broken promises i've heard you say Too many times I lost at the games you play This time will be different, you swear I look over, you're still not there The missed call sound beeps and I feel proud Even though part of me wants to scream out loud I did it, the first step is through The hard part is actually getting over you Though I feel it may take all i've got Im tired of pretending to be someone im not Moving forward with this broken heart It all could've been avoided had I ignored you from the start Yet we do not learn if we never live on chance I know I will not be a victim of circumstance You have made me realize I deserve better than that call Im proud to say I know I can get over it after all
