The Break Up

by kristen 1833   Aug 29, 2006


For over 6 years, this is the first time
That I'm not trying to make you mine
Our love has come and long since passed
I knew from the start it wasn't meant to last
Too much has happened that time can't erase
We both know we need this space
We love to hate and hate to love
But I know who you're still thinking of
It's me and him, her and you
Just look at what we put ourselves through
We both messed up, we lost the trust
Because we followed our selfish lust
But you had passion, and romance, and flame
While I was just trying to play your game
You loved that girl, I knew all along
And I'm not saying what I did wasn't wrong
But I was sick of your game and tired of the lie
There wasn't a night when I wouldn't cry
So I did what I did and regretted it all
I didn't know how hard we would fall
I miss you now, I really do
But I think I'm better off without you
You can take her, and I'll just walk away
And I know that I'll be fine one day
And maybe then you won't cross my mind
And I'll leave you and the pain behind
And maybe you'll find eventually
That you're really starting to miss me
And if by some chance you ever do
If fate allows, I'll come back to you
But until then, while you're still gone
I'll just keep trying to move along
So say your good-byes while I'm left to fall
And I hope that she was worth it all
