im sorry
i accidentally
made you forget who you were, before i was
became the best, worst thing to walk into your life
killed you with love, gave anything to take everything

made you forget who your friends were, before i was
became the best, engrossing thing to walk into my life
killed me with sadness, tried anything to give me everything

this is when i let you go
push you out of the nest we created
too comfortable to leave

this is when i let you go
before i give you three words

sometimes the people we would die for
end up being the people that **** us

end up turning us into versions of ourselves
we don’t recognize

im sorry i broke the mirror
im sorry i broke you

maybe you met me to realize how much better you can be without
how much better you can be without me
how much better you can be

you kept asking for an out, but i couldn’t let you go

but goodbye is the only way
to bring you back to me
