I'm trying to erase
the image of your smile
and I can still feel your embrace
even though its been a while.
for some reason I cant forget
no matter how hard I try
I just want to push the memories away
because they make me want to cry.
so I'm going to let go
even if it fills me with pain
I was nothing but your secret
I have nothing here to gain.
ill pick myself up off the ground
and brush of all the dirt
and hope that in the process
I can brush off some of the hurt.
ill take babysteps to get me there
a safe place without you and me
it seems like that's where I belong
I face reality and see we'll never be.
tell myself its over now
there's no use holding on
I can do this by myself
Im not weak, I am strong.
throw away old photographs
notes and letters saved
put caution tape on this old used road
a new path has been paved.
remind my heart of all the hurt
my mind of all the lies
its time to move on from the past
there's no more fake goodbyes.
this time I know I will let go
I can no longer stay
I have to do the right thing now
and finally walk away.
I will no longer remenice
on memories we once shared
because there broken promises
you never really cared.
it was another hit and miss
I believed you when you lied
bullshit lines you fed to me
to keep me satisfied.
and when you realize your mistake
I hope that you will see
you'll never find someone else
that could ever compare to me!
