If I wrote a letter to you
What would it say?
Would I convict you
For leaving me this way?

I'd tell you how it hurts
It hurts to be alone...
I'd tell you that not everything I ever did was wrong.
And I'd show you how strong I am...

In my letter to you...
The words might not be pleasant...
The things I have to say they tear at me every day...
And the pain...it never goes away.

It wasn't fair, it wasn't right...
You took so much
You changed my life...
And not for the better.

Did you know that you broke my heart?
Did you know that you tore our family apart?
You said that everything would be alright...
And it is...
It is now that you aren't in my life!

And if I wrote a letter to you
I'd tell you that I hated you...
All the hell you put me through.
I just wanted to be good enough...
Just wanted to feel your love.

Just one last thing before I go...
I can't tell you that I love you...
All I can say is what I know...
I hope you learned from your mistakes...
Unlikely as it may be...
I don't want you in my life...
You had your chance...you won't hurt me twice.
Take your lies and all your fake tries...
Just stay away from me...

You had nothing to do with what I've become...
I'm not yours...
I never was.
And I never meant to hurt you...

That's why I won't write this letter to you.
