You're free

You don't owe me any texts anymore
I can't get mad at you like I did before
First begging me to stay in my life
Then hanging me out to dry
No, I can't force you to try
 
I guess I hoped
That you would still like me
Even when love is off the table
I thought that we'd be able
To stay close
Like you promised then
Now you're not attached to me
You're so happy to be free
 
I forgave you for breaking my heart
Forgave the lies though they tore me apart
Cause no harm was intended
You wanted to be friends you said
I'm just agitated, won't get mad
 
I didn't know
I was that suffocating
Didn't know I held you down
When I am not around
You seem to glow
Guess you were waiting
For me to set you free
How can you have loved me then
but now not like me?
