I should have fought for you, that's what I should of done.
I should have screamed no so you couldn't run.
But instead of fighting, all I said was goodbye
And hung up the phone and started to cry.
Because I couldn't bare to have you hear my plea
Just for you to stay I would have given anything.
I didn't want you to see me as someone who's weak
Because I'm supposed to be strong when life got bleak.
I didn't want to be that girl who fights a losing battle
Even though I was fighting for something that mattered.
I didn't want to be that girl who begs for you to stay,
Screams at you to stop and never walk away.
I just couldn't be that girl because I knew it wouldn't work.
I knew I didn't matter, that's why I got hurt.
Because when you care about someone, you never step aside.
You hold their hand and wipe the tears from their eyes.
I knew I never mattered when you cringed at my cuts.
You saw the real me and that scared you too much.
I should have hid them better, I guess I moved to fast,
But you were the one who was ok with my past.
I should of realized sooner, but love blinded me.
It made it difficult to see the liar you turned out to be.
You said all of the right words at all if the right times,
And it took me till the end to figure out you were lying..
