Lived my the rules gave up part of myself
Listened did what was asked feeling used
While others turn their back as I remain loyal
They ask me what's wrong so much bothers me but in the end it will work itself out
Everything I was told seem like a lie or no long valid
So many things changed for the better or worse just doesn't make sense anymore
Eating me alive the struggle inside can't hide it anymore
From friends to stranger someone I once knew
Different from how I remember you
From love to hate; our romance changed, how did we date
Trying to forgive but keep reliving the bad
I'd like to be friends come around sometimes it's best I distance myself stay away
Trying to stay together even though things around me are whatever
Because I'm different wearing the scarlet letters
But they don't bring me pain or shame
Being labeled doesn't hurt because I know my abilities and my worth
Years of hurt and crying out being ignored doesn't surprise me and become immune to isolation
Self destruction was my way of getting back at you but ruined myself more you could care less
Tried to help and save you but kept walking back into danger now we are complete strangers
I was the strength and mouth piece all you did was make me weak because I valued you turns out you're the one who's two faced
My love once grew for you now it's gone cold with time the betrayal fades old forgiveness has helped me grow
If you came back not sure what to say or how you'd act. Broken trust know better than to give you my back. The knife wound has healed but you broke my heart don't expect you to heal my spirit that still grows and will never go dull.
