I'm Better off Without You.

"When you fall I’ll be the only one who looks away. When you call, I’ll be the first to tell you I can’t stay. It’s all over, I’ve found a better way to help keep you from me, I’m better off this way."

You've brought this on yourself.

If and when you're missin me, just remember you've brought this on yourself. You've forced me to become independent. I don't need you anymore.




"I don't need you, don't wanna see you. You showed me nothing but hate, You ran me into the ground, but what comes around goes around. And You don't hurt me, You don't hurt me No more."

Good thing they got in touch with me before I got in touch with you

It's a real funny thing. I actually think it's pretty ironic. All in all, it just proves to me that I was right. I love you more than anything, I really fuckin do. But while I'm fuckin lovin you, you're fuckin her. You can't give up that which you're used to, that which you want more than anything else, for that which you need. You're weak. Don't tell me my love is enough because it's not.  I'm not enough for you, and I never will be. When I said I couldn't trust you, I really meant it. Loving you has probably brought on the most pain I've ever put myself through, but I intentionally put myself through it anyway. I intentionally held on to this self inflicted torture because I love you. 

I think the best overall part of tonight's situation though is that, today, I made up my mind. I decided that you really do genuinely love me and that whatever insecurities I felt, I would try my hardest to squash. For you. I think it's funny that I called you four times. I think it's a God-sent that your phone was off because I would have been the fool saying "Hey, I love you, and I don't care about it anymore. I want to work on this because I know we have no other option. I cannot be without you." real funny. All I can really say is that it's a good thing they got in touch with me before I got in touch with you, considering I'm only your "ex that's been begging for you to take me back."

"You can hold any girl that you like, Fall in love when it's easy at night But, you'll wake up wondering why she ain't ever something better. When you're lost and you've run out of road, Find what I already know. In the end close is all there is But you won't find this. There's once in a lifetime, And there's once in a while, And the difference between the two is about a million miles. Oh, you might get lucky while the moon is looking on, But in the truth of the morning, the stars will be long gone."




In closing, I just want to say: "watch how fast that ass fade in to the past"

Nothing

"And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town
I'm swearing if I go there now
I can change his mind turn it all around

I know that I'm drunk but I'll say the words,
And he'll listen this time even though they're slurred,
So I dialed his number and confessed to him,
I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing 

So I stumble there, along the railings and the fences
I know I'm with him face to face, that he'll come to his senses
Every drunk step and path leads me to his door
If he sees how much I'm hurting
He'll take me back for sure"


You don't know how bad I want to keep myself away from experiencing this again.

For the First Time

"She's all laid up in bed with a broken heart
While i'm drinking jack all alone in my local bar
And we don't know how we got into this mad situation
Only doing things out of frustration
Trying to make it work but man these times are hard

She needs me now but I can't seem to find a time
I've got a new job now in the unemployment line
And we don't know how we got into this mess it's a gods test
Someone help us cause we're doing our best

Trying to make it work but man these times are hard
But we're gonna start by drinking old cheap bottles of wine
Sit talking up all night
Saying things we haven't for a while, a while yeah
We're smiling but we're close to tears
Even after all these years
We just now got the feeling that we're meeting
For the first time


...Oh, these times are hard.
Yeah they're making us crazy
Don't give up on me baby"




This is what we were. This is how it was. I can't wrap my head around what makes me any different to you now.

I'm not myself

I feel like I'm just goin through the motions in everything I do.

so numb
