I've been trapped for 21 years
Facing the fact that you'll never overcome your fears.
Sure enough your lips stayed sealed

And your pride prevented you from saying what was real.
I walked away to save myself from seeing you fall
You never cared to know who I was at all.

I always wonder about what you did to me
Was it justified to see my father in my eyes?
To treat me like I'm in disguise.

I'll never know your purpose, years go by unspoken was it worth it?
I walked my path in life without you, you abandoned me from the start.
Take back these painful memories,

I no longer hold them in my heart.
Sure enough your lips stayed sealed
And your pride prevented you from saying what was real.

I walked away to save myself from seeing you fall
You never cared to know who I was at all.
It was you, not I, who tore us apart.

You tore us apart.
You'll never know how much I needed you through my trying times.
Never got your help, but I'm getting by just fine.

Your downward spiral doesn't justify your actions.
I've got to let go, I need to move on.
I'm moving on.
