Time To Let Go
You knocked me down, I fell so hard
You tore me up, you broke my heart
But still I stood there by your side
while you ignored the tears I cried
never asked if I was okay
never cared that I wasnt
you think "I'm sorry" makes it better
You know it doesn't
cause you can't undo the pain that you have done
when my soul believed u were the one
even through the worst and hardest of times
I never once left from your side
now I gotta start over-I'll get over this
I'm gonna be fine-it's me that you'll miss
cuz now you know just what you lost
you'll never replace me-I'm your biggest loss
keep trying to come back, its fuel for my fire
I'm so over you, no truth in a liar
Our memories were pointless- our moments so fake
I was right you were wrong-it's your turn to break
I'm glad that your crying- as I laugh in your face
I truly feel nothing
my hearts been erased
You ask me how I can be so cold
but where were you when I cried alone?
where was my comfort when I needed you most?
I'm sick of your medicine-you take a dose
Goodbye to you-goodbye to us
I tried to hold on, but it hurts too much
to look in your eyes and see my mistakes
I have to let go, even though my heart breaks
everytime I remember how real it once was
and try to forget what hurts to think of
but I wish you the best, I hold no regrets
I hope this will teach you to clean up your mess
and you'll be the man you never were to me
to the next girl that stands where I couldn't be.
It's just not who I am, not anymore
I loved you so much, but I love myself more
once the blindfolds come off, You can't fake happiness
So I put my heart back in my chest
And while it's still broken, the beat carries on
you can't live a life that your heart knows is wrong
But this won't leave me bitter, It was worth what I got
Cause I found who I am, when I learned who I'm not.
