pt 2

There are times I've been afraid to let the real me show,
But you've given me the strength I need to grow.
Everything about the time we spent together
Made me better,
So I'm sad to say its time for me to go.
I don't want any hard feelings-
We've had fun together really,
But I'm looking for a little more than fun.
So its best we don't delay it,
And I truly hate to say it
But my love, this time, I really have to run.

Now you're telling me you'll change
Saying you can make it better
But I know its still the same
Every time we get together
We go right back to the game
We love selfishly, we're childish
Always trying to place the blame
Always trying to place the blame
And I never tell the truth
Till I want to hurt your feelings
Then I let emotions loose
That'll send your mindset reeling
What is it we find appealing
About this sick game we play
Always pulling us together
When we try to walk away?

Well, what else is there to say?
Now i've told you that I'm leavin
But you're begging me to stay
Even though I have no reason
Its the highest price I'll pay
Staying with you is like treason
Its my own heart I betray
Its my own heart I betray
But without you I feel lost
And I fall into your web again
I pay the highest cost
Without thought, cause it feels heaven sent
I give up in exhaust
In my slumber, hear you say
"You weren't leaving anyway"
"You weren't leaving anyway"
