Inevitable Withdrawal

Inevitable I had to give you up
Stealing my life away
On me like a second skin
Turning everything to grey

Burning under pressure
Squeezed your first too hard
I slipped between your fingers
Letting down your guard

Took advantage of your weakness
Only way to break free
Yet don't play the victim
You're the one who caged me

Burning all your bridges
Leaving me to walk on glass
You're crying on the inside
I feel guilty for having the last laugh

And it isn't easy
You're not only one in pain
Brought this on yourself
So why do I feel the shame

It should be you in hiding
Not the other way around
So shut your mouth now darling
There is no need to make a sound

For you tainted my life
Having withdrawal from your power
Hard to get my life back
When so much of it you did devour

Because I still worry
Care for my emotional abuser
Even though he's sick
And is the epitome of loser

For I don't want to hurt
But want to give him another chance
Yet I know it would be wrong
To end up doing the same dance

It's just difficult crashing
Hitting solid ground at last
So many bad memories
It's hard to keep the past in the past

But I will do it
And I will do it my way
He is forced to watch now
Because today is finally my day
