about

A song I wrote about letting go of the need to perform to earn false love.

lyrics

when I met you, I wasn't me
eclipsed in what I thought I should be
but that only lasts for so long
I called you lover, I called you friend
that was the beginning of the end
a resilient heart must go on


I'm the kind of person that always says sorry first
the kind of woman that holds on to your words
and I never told you that you fucked me over, but I'll do that now
I'm the kind of person that knows who she really is
nothing will stop me from this metamorphosis
I never told you that you haven't seen the best of me yet


when I met severance, I was the glue
that held myself together and away from you
I didn't know I was so strong
I ripped the paper, I poured the poison
down the drain with all my choices
all the while I'm thinking "good riddance"


I'm the kind of person that always says sorry first
the kind of woman that holds on to your words
and I never told you that you fucked me over, but I'll do that now
I'm the kind of person that knows who she really is
nothing will stop me from this metamorphosis
I never told you that you haven't seen the best of me yet


and you lost that chance,
good luck with that
I hope you find everything you're looking for
I'm not your performer anymore
you don't even know who you let go
I hope you never come to your senses
you might lose your mind, wishing you were still mine


when I met me, I didn't know
there were such great heights beyond my lowest lows
but I'll never doubt myself again
I found the answer in blurry lines
I wasn't burned up in that fire
and I have no more regrets
