Making Me See
My feelings for you are finally going away.
I just know that there's nothing more to say.
I'm wasting my breath when I talk.
I'm wasting my energy when I walk.
Toward you and how I feel.
Because now it isn't that real.
My feelings are diminishing.
My dreams aren't existing.
You're gone and I almost don't care.
Because you were never really there.
You've changed into someone I don't recognize.
But it's actually you, I should have realized.
I should have listened to what people said.
I shouldn't have listened to my heart instead.
My brain was warning me, but I kept trying.
I listened to you even when I knew you were lying.
Saying you were going to get better, get ahead.
Give me time, I'm doing this for us you always said.
I wish I knew then what I know now.
That my home is already in my house.
He's the one who's been here and always will.
He's not the greatest at showing how he feels.
I should have stayed where I was meant to be.
I guess I just needed you so I could finally see.
A lesson that was a blessing.
A test I thought I was passing.
I failed, but he accepted me back.
Thanks to you we're back on track.
