" the courage to say goodbye "




i can’t fight this hurt from you anymore
that’s why i had to shut the door
pain’s reality can no longer hide
because for too long it’s built up inside
too much time out of my life was given to you
making sure you were happy with everything i do
now that it’s over , the sun’s shining again
and the feelings that i felt way back then
they’ve been killed by the words within a single night
and because of that bittersweet fight
i realized you weren’t that perfect person that i used to see
and the only reason you kept me is because you liked to use me
but i’m not a weak girl and i don’t need you to stay strong
that’s why this “friendship” could no longer go on
the ways you hurt me were so indirect
but now i see that they had an affect
without you i’m the person that i want to be
without you i’m that unique person… without you i’m me
i’m through with your shattered promises and lies
you wouldn’t even care about the tears that i’ve cried
finally i got up the courage to no longer cry…
and finally i got up the courage to say goodbye
