MYSELF

It's not because of what you do
or even all the things you say
I need to find out who I am
I need to walk away.

I love you, and this hurts me too
but I won't be held here by your tears
I need to save my soul from you
I'm drowning myself in my own fears.

Maybe this won't be permanent
someday again our paths might cross
but time won't heal this heart of mine
I need to find the "me" that I have lost.

To love me is to let me go
and you need to do that now
because you've made me feel so inadequate
I'll find myself again someday, somehow.
