If you love something, let it go. If it comes back, it's yours. If it doesn't, it never was and it's not meant to be.

I can't believe
I actually fell into
For a while I thought
I was in love with you
You made it worse
Every time you smiled
You drew me in
Just to make me cry
But now I know
What I did wrong
I loved you
Now I have to move on
Because you weren't for real
You were just a fake
You ruined my life
My mistake
All my friends warned me
Said you weren't good
I refused to listen
To the truth
So why do I still
Feel all alone
Whenever I'm by myself
At home
But now I know
What I did wrong
I loved you
Now I have to move on
Because you weren't for real
You were just a fake
You ruined my life
My mistake
