I'm your best friend, wait
No I'm not
I'm your lover, please don't forget
You can't pretend that I'm not
Threatening to you, when you say you need your space
I'm not lying, you value freedom
Over me
You say you're on your own,
Well you know you're not
You've got your lover to fight for you
You can't pretend I won't
Cause I love you more than you love yourself
I'm not lying, so often I choose you
Over me.
And you've tried to heal the wounds
Make it as if it never was
And I know you've done your best
But you will never be able to heal these scars
You always say you're sorry but we know you'll do it again
you'll do it again
I know what you did but I still don't know the reason
You always say you're sorry but we know you'll do it again
You'll do it again
You'll do it to me
But, I don't want to hurt anymore...
You pull me close
And I feel your love
Then you push me away from you
To protect yourself
You don't feel safe when someone gets past your walls
And you think it's kill or die
So you choose to save yourself
Over me
You give me one lame excuse after another
And with them you shot me down
And you know you've got to change
But you can never figure out how
You always say you're sorry when we know you'll do it again
Do it again
I know what you did but I still don't know the reason
You always say you're sorry but we know you'll do it again
You'll do it again
You'll do it to me
But, I don't want to hurt anymore...
No matter what you said before you always tell me this
you love me so much you will not leave
But when lovers get too close to you
You somehow find it hard to breathe
You always lash out in anger
End up hitting the wrong target,
me, your love.
You always say you're sorry but we know you'll do it again
you'll do it again
I know what you did but I still don't know the reason
You always say you're sorry but we know you'll do it again
You'll do it again
You'll do it to me
But, I don't want to hurt anymore...
And I refuse to be hurt anymore,
So I'll leave you and your excuses
With all the freedom in the world,
I'll forever put you first and always before myself
But lover I cannot keep dying for you, when you have never died for me
And because we know you'll do it again
You'll do it to me,
And this is why I have to leave...
