I'm feeling more free now that I'm alone
You took what was mine and claimed it as your own
Gave yourself nightmares when I went out
Imagined my body making its rounds
But you wouldn't tell me when I'd get home
The thoughts you'd save for your microphone
Kiss me softly and hide how you resented me
Do you remember the way you looked in my eyes?
Was that the truth or a disguise?
Pretend you're alright til I'm out of sight
If I ever asked, you'd say "I'm fine"
It made me so crazy how you'd call me "baby"
Then make me feel like I did you wrong
Ohhh
I never thought it'd be a walk in the park
But I wish it would be easier to talk about my heart
I know that sometimes I get scared and I just hide (ohhh)
Scared my fears will come true that you were never mine
She gave me trust issues, I think I'll just hide behind my disguise
Because you don't know (no I don't)
How pretty lies can be (no)
The way she taught me to see
A nightmare fantasy, her shadows stay with me
(Ohhh)
Do you remember the way (I remember) you looked in my eyes? (everything)
Was that the truth or a disguise? (I swear I never meant to hurt you)
Pretend you're alright til I'm out of sight (out of sight)
If I ever asked (I can't help it), you'd say "I'm fine" (you're not fine)
It made me so crazy how you'd call me "baby"
Then make me feel like I did you wrong
Ohhh
I'm feeling more free now that I'm alone
Coming to terms with what I should've known
Now you're gone for good and I've understood
I couldn't save you on my own
