Scars In Her

I thought I needed you And so my head I bowed for you I believed there was no whole without you And so I gave all of me Scars you painted on my soul You made my heart bleed daily Yet I held on For a second I believed I believed as long as an us was Then I would surely be whole I believed in I love you Only because it was from your lips But desolate and broken I sit Staring at the edges of my mirror The gal looking back is haggard Tortured and lost All because she believed Yet conviction shines in her eyes Hurt and broken they are Yet purity and hunger for growth shines I walked this far I broke apart and lost So tonight lemme shed tears Lemme break apart Lemme tear apart this heart The heart that whispers I love you still Lemme cut away this edge That believes you are the only one Lemme break away From this soul That chose you Tonight I whisper not goodbye Tonight I whisper only to the gal The one who trusted you The one who loved you The one who was dispensable to you Yet to her you were priceless Tonight I whisper to her *It's time, it really is time to let go*     *'You didn't lose when you gave him yourself, you lost when you forgot to fight for yourself too'*
