I tried
I really did
But you left me behind
Told me that you loved me
Then told me you hated me
I thought I could move on
I guess I thought wrong
I'm too young
To have cried so many tears
Yet you forced them out of me
You tore my soul away
And fled to your safe haven
Leaving me alone here
Through all this I realized
What you took had never been mine
That I didn't need your false love
I needed the truth
And finally I found it
I smiled and decided to go on
To leave you in an ancient memory
So I left you behind
I really did
I didn't even have to try
