I was nowhere near ready when all it ended
|
So I hoped we could find a new day, cannot live without you
|
|
You gave me the chance, time and again, in vain
|
Now my feelings for you, every tear, every smile, paid in full
|
Break the chain, but no longer can I take the pain
|
|
It's hard for me to love myself right now,
|
I've waited, hated, blamed it all on you
|
|
Needed to be strong, yet I was always too weak
|
So I can only blame myself for this state we are in
|
I will take what you have for me now, if it's not too late
|
Did you change? I did too. Love can grow from the last grain
|
|
It's hard for me to love myself right now,
|
I've waited, hated, blamed it all on you
|
|
|
I need you less and less
|
Every day fix this moral decay
|
Yet I have grown to love you even more
|
|
I fall back, and I turn another cheek.
|
You mouth the words you're not ready to speak
|
You're scared of me now; no I never had a clue
|
That I'd become so much stronger than you.
|
|
I will take what you have for me now, if it's not too late
|
|
If you like I will leave, I will not miss the last train again
|
|
It's hard for me to love myself right now,
|
I've waited, hated, blamed it all on you...
|
|
It's hard for me to love your face right now
|
I'm waiting, hating, needing being me
|
|
|
I need you less and less and
|
Every day leads us farther away
|
From that moment
|
|
It's hard for me to hate myself right now
|
Finally I'm understanding me
|
One day we may have whole new me's and you's
|
But first I need to learn to love me too....
