Well, it's been almost a year to the moment When I finally realized it was over And I knew that love wasn't good enough Of a reason for me to stay Well, I saw you yesterday; you were drivin' And I tried so hard to forget You were alive, and as you passed by I began to cry Over things that I did not say
And hide underneath my blankets and sheets I'm finally free I'm killin' the ghost of you, and I'm close to Awakening me
Yeah, yeah So I'm takin' my heart and I'm gettin' me out And love's something that I wouldn't wanna live without So I'm takin' my heart and I'm gettin' me out On my own, my own, my own
Well, it takes all of my strength to be stable And I force your insults under the table And if you were wise you would compromise And allow me to live my way 'Cause I am not a force to be reckoned with And you don't have a clue what you're messin' with And you can't see to the best in me 'Cause it's more than your heart can take
And hide underneath my blankets and sheets I'm finally free I'm killin' the ghost of you, and I'm close to Awakening me
I'm awakening me
I'm awakening me, yeah
I'm awakening me
So I'm takin' my heart and I'm gettin' me out And love's something that I wouldn't wanna live without So I'm takin' my heart and I'm gettin' me out On my own, my own, my own
I'm takin' my heart and I'm settin' you free And, baby, now you're just another song to me And the edge of your sword isn't sharp enough for me To bleed
