"Just be yourself; you are wonderful"


It's impossible how quick I became okay again
Without your pain stained lies
You taught me that hearts aren't meant to be lent
To boys with simple words and fire in their eyes
You can convince yourself it's just another act
Of a hopeless girl trying to protect herself
But I wonder how hard your fist hits the wall
When my strength wins and your empire falls

You must think that I still love you
How fast you are to flatter yourself
You must think that I still love you
I haven't loved you since the day I left

You look me straight in the eyes
A test of evil doing it's best to survive
A year ago I would have thrown in the towel
Giving in to whatever has taken the place of your pride
But seasons have passed since I escaped your grasp
Ran until I couldn't remember your voice
And ran fast

You must think that I still love you
I haven't loved you since the day I left
I haven't loved you since the day I left
And I'll never love you again
