Tired of holding on to something I cannot even grasp
I decide to let it go.
Yet my heart is breaking every single step away
Just a few feet, I almost go back
But I keep my focus straight ahead
It's not easy.
Whoever fool said when you hurt, it's when you love
I want to give him a pat on the shoulder.
I tried. I loved. I hoped. I dreamed.
I wake. I'm wide awake. I'm sober.
One heavy step.
Another heavy step away.
Feels like forever.
Little by little, I keep my distance
And maybe I could look back without feeling anything.
People said time heals,
but they never said it's going to hurt you first.
It's hurting me like a fresh wound out in the cold air.
It's hurting me like a heartbeat stopping, unaware.
I'll continue on, until nothing of you remains.
But for now I have to endure the pain.
The time will come when it heals my wounds into spotless scars,
And not a faintest speck of anything.
One day, I'm going back.
Heart intact.
And any love for you, ransacked.
That day will come, I assure thee.
That day when I will finally be free.
