I'm So Glad

I know it’s over

I know you’re gone

But somehow I’m satisfied

Because this wasn’t wrong

You chose the right choice

And I did too

Becoming apart was the best thing to do.

 

I’m so glad you know what you want

It’s better than being together and living a lie

Because now all your feelings

Aren’t locked up inside

Your soul like a complex chest

Now you’ve unlocked it

Now you can rest.

 

You tell me you’re sorry

And honestly, it’s okay

Because I’m always with you

Each and every day

You tell me you’re confused

How you miss me so

And then you say

‘I made a mistake, you know.’

 

I’m so glad you know what you want

It’s better than being together and living a lie

Because now all your feelings

Aren’t locked up inside

Your soul like a complex chest

Now you’ve unlocked it

Now you can rest.

 

I tell you I’m sorry

But I don’t know what for

I’m so confused now

You say you want more

Of what you killed

Got rid of just hours before

Are you kidding me?

I thought you wanted to be free.

 

I’m so glad you know what you want

It’s better than being together and living a lie

Because now all your feelings

Aren’t locked up inside

Your soul like a complex chest

Now you’ve unlocked it

Now you can rest.

 

 

 

 

I’m so glad

That you’re really thinking

I’m so glad

You know what you’re missing

I’m so glad

You’ve seen both sides

I’m so glad

That again, you’re mine.

 

You’re mine, I’m yours

No more tiptoeing

On wooden floors

I’m yours, you’re mine

Hopefully for a very long time.
