Now this was my time to turn the table
I flipped it....

Didn't really wanna touch this phase so
I skipped it..

If pride was a pool well you could say that
I dipped it..

Had my chance to sever the bond but instead
I gripped it..

Settling for friendship hurt my heart so from my chest
I ripped it..

Lack of emotion caused acceptance, so your title
I stripped it..
