I try to be the better person, even to those that kick me while im down
But in the process of trying to help you i almost lost a promising future and the relationship Ive put so much into
I don't know why i couldn't let you go, even though in a way i already had
I let you go as a lover but i had not yet let you go as a friend
I tried to help you and your lover, i spoke highly of her in order to get a job position which is nearly impossible to get if you don't have any ties
And all the while you plotted to hurt me and ruin me, you both had evil intentions, which shouldn't be a surprise but yet i was left baffled and hurt
I understand the hurt you felt when i cut you off in your time of need and i explained the reason for it
your family and closest friends even told you to leave me alone when you told them of your ill intentions, this is what you told me
Yet again i let you in, trying to see the better in you
I don't know why you spread those lies and planted ill images in peoples minds
But those who know me know im nothing like the image you painted of me
All i know is i want to move on from you
I want to stop dreaming of you as the person i knew you to be
the person i could laugh with and have a good time with and tell anything to, the person i could run to and cry on your shoulder and feel like you cared
you had a way of always cheering me up when i was at my lowest
I don't know why you did what you did
I just wish i could erase every memory and feeling of you Ive ever had
