People say I've changed so much. Well here's
the honest truth, I grew up. I stopped letting
people push me around. I learned that you can't
always be happy. I accepted reality.

Don't you hate the feeling
when your throat
hurts from all the tears you're
holding back && you can't
control the words coming
out of your mouth cause
there is just too many
things you haven't said

There’s a difference between letting go

&& pretending you forgot

[maybe] i'm over you
[maybe] i've moved on
[maybe] i like someone else
[but maybe] i'm a perfectly good liar

She stares at herself in the mirror. She doesn't notice how gorgeous she is.
She doesn't give herself credit for being such a great person.
A wonderful friend. A great listener.
He doesn't see her beauty, and now, neither does she.

It’s the hardest thing in the universe
to listen to the guy you love
talking about the girl you want to be

I didn't want to admit it, it was easier to lie,
& hide the hurt & emptiness; to smile instead of cry

So that is it.
I'm shutting my doors & putting my walls back up.
I'm closing my curtains & removing the welcome mat.
I'm blocking everything out again, because it's so much easier than feeling something

They say she`s beautiful because they don`t see her tears, they say she`s invincible because they don`t see her fears, they say she`s perfect because they can`t see her flaw, but they don`t realize she`s the one imperfection of them all.

Everyone in the world could have told me
he was going to break my heart,
but there's just some things you have
to find out on your own.
