Healing

Do you remember all those promises?
Do you remember those late nights?
Remember the times we just held each other
Knowing that everything was going to be alright

Do you remember all the perfect moments?
Do you remember how we never said it would be done?
We thought that everything would always get fixed
Stupid enough to believe that you were the perfect one

I was lost in this dream, so lost I couldn't find me
So I tried to be with you so I could find love
But all along I was not finding love after all
And I started realizing that I was not so tough

You started to tear me apart from deep within
You stabbed me in the back with a knife
And started pushing deep until you reached my heart
It was like you were trying to end my life

As I sit here, I really have a lot of questions
I really don't understand why I ever fell for you
Sure it did take a long time after you fell for me
But I'm trying to come to an answer and I don't have a clue

I guess I was searching for love in all the wrong places
I was trying to find someone that would fix my heart
But I needed to realize that I needed to fix it myself
So I should have never gone through my heart being ripped apart

But I'm finally getting my feet back under me
I'm starting to see the guy that I was hiding for so long
Just know that I wish I had never dated you
But I can honestly say that I am now emotionally strong
