The Art of Letting Go

Info

It's been five months since that day

Hurt and broken, yet I said I'm okay

With what's left of me, I forgave you

but forgetting is just so hard to do


I kept asking myself, did you weep?

For every night before you went to sleep,

For once, did I ever cross your mind?

All those memories you've left behind?


I hoped you would come running back

My colorful world had turned to black

I wished you'd come and say you're sorry

I thought you would, because you love me


What a fool I am to believe you would

'cause closer to the edge, there I stood

With eyes filled with tears, heart breaking

And pictures of us in my memory, burning


You, with heart cold as ice left me alone

Your cold voice was firm, hard as stone

Words sharp as knife left me wounded

Futile journey to please you, finally ended


There's nothing left for me to say or do

You had your chance, you chose not to

The shattered pieces you walked on

The things you did, to you may fall upon.


Whatever may happen, I'll let things be

If you are happy then I'll let you two be

I'll live my life like there's no tomorrow

I'll be better and know now when to let go
