I have done all I can.
I've laid it all out for you.
I started to feel, once again.
Something I never should have done.
Second chances are rare,
And my dear, you've had more than two.
I thought you had become someone new.
I thought I could live my life with you.

Thinking is more dangerous than you know.
We aim too high but shoot too low.
Expect too much and always say no.

I held onto what I had.
I enjoyed it while I could.
I never knew how long it'd last,
'Cause nothing lasts forever.
No, nothing lasts forever.
Your feelings faded with time,
It's sad but true.
Now I've lost my feelings for you.

I know you were a mistake,
But don't think I'll waste my time on fixing anything.
I thought my actions kept me bound to you.
You were the tyrant with whips and chains.
Only because I allowed you to be.
But I finally realized I don't need you at all.
No, this time I'm setting myself free.

Ignorance is bliss, or so I have heard.
It's better to know than to be blind.
Realizing the truth hurts much less.

I held onto what I had.
I enjoyed it while I could.
I never knew how long it'd last,
'Cause nothing lasts forever.
No, nothing lasts forever.
Your feelings faded with time,
It's sad but true.
Now I've lost my feelings for you.
