It's Over

I don't want to be anyone but me
So stop asking me to sacrifice my individuality
For you, a person who can't and won't see
The beauty that has grown inside of me

Honey, oh, honey there's enough pain in life
Without you coming after me with a knife
You claim it's your love for me, that I'll be your wife
Someday, someday soon I hope to be done with this strife

I look to the sky as the run rises and sunsets,
Sitting and hoping, just hoping and wishing you'd rest
This isn't a game of who loves who more, it's not a test
I get, oh I get it, you're the biggest and baddest, the absolute worst

But you'll never love me the way that you should
Always forgiving you for all the times you've hurt me, knowing you would
Get away with the abuse, knowing I'll never stop loving you, as if I could
You're the pain that you feel when something's not real, you're tainted good

I look to the sky as the last sunset sets on my life that was spent loving you, sweet misery
How much happier I'll be spending my life looking for new ways to love the girl that's me
I wish that you'd have tried harder to put aside your self hatred that you hid behind so the world couldn't see
That the love that was so overwhelming in my heart in the beginning was starting to flee

There'll always be sands of the love I had for you at the bottom of my heart
And lying half buried the blackness are pieces of the heart you broke apart
But by leaving you I'm going to get that desperately needed a new start
It doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt me doing this but we need to part
