I said you were a weakness I said you were a drug And you could cure a lifetime of sadness with one of your hugs I said that you were different I said you understood But now I see, you never could I said that you were truthful You said you wouldn't let go But even with that promise I feel you drifting farther so I fear that I must go I don't do little heartbreaks I do full on emotional lakes so I take back what I said every single word I can move on within time I'm independent I'm self assured Haven't you heard?

Haven't you heard?
I said you were a weakness I said you were a drug And you could cure a lifetime of sadness with one of your hugs I said that you were different I said you understood But now I see, you never could I said that you were truthful You said you wouldn't let go But even with that promise I feel you drifting farther so I fear that I must go I don't do little heartbreaks I do full on emotional lakes so I take back what I said every single word I can move on within time I'm independent I'm self assured Haven't you heard?
I must learn to choose who to trust. Words can drip from the prettiest mouth, and still mean nothing if they aren't true.
