pt 4 (the end)

my favorite out of the series

I left three weeks ago
And realized I'd forgotten how to sleep alone
I need the company, thats why I've always got the TV on
And my worst enemy has suddenly become the radio
'Cause all they play is love songs
And we all know how that goes.
Its weird now that I'm killing spiders by myself
And going to change the light bulbs with a foot stool as my help
And the first night? I accidentally cooked for two
Yea, I'm just that used to you
But you know what?
As much as my heart aches
This don't feel like heartbreak
Just another slice of life I finally get to partake of
And even though you weren't my first love
I can honestly say that you were my best and worst love
You taught me how to thirst, love
Didn't know passion till I knew you
Didn't know my own strength, but now I do
And I know I can make it through
Because no matter what tomorrow brings
I'm almost sure I've been through worse things
You see
I left three weeks ago
And now I find that I can finally sleep alone
Don't need the company, so I don't have to have the TV on
And nothing in this world could break up me and the radio
I'm back in love with love songs
And we all know how that goes
I change my lightbulbs, kill my spiders by myself
I'm stronger now, so I'm thanking you for all your help
But every now and then, I still do cook for two
I'm too used to being used to you.
