The truth is
You've treated me wrong
For a long time
I just didn't see it
But now that I'm standing up for myself
And it's pushing you out of my life
And it hurts
So
Badly
It hurts so much to push you away. I've known you my whole life and until today, I never even realized how much you hurt me. I've seen evidence of it right in front of me a thousand times over, I just didn't want to believe it. But I need to take care of myself now. After 20 years, I'm just seeing that, and I can't believe I never saw it before; you don't really love me. You love what I can do for you.
