I know it's hard to believe, but I'm happier now, I'm happier now
And I'm glad that you left, glad that you let me down
And I'm happier now


I'm better off today, than ever before, not waiting for you, to close another door
The girl I adore, she isn't you, the crazy thing is, she likes me too

So get on with life, I wish you the best, don't care what you think, cuz I could care less
And I'm not the man I used to be, think I'm only getting better presently


You brought the storms, clouded my life, wounded me deep, words like a knife
You brought the rain, flooded my home, drowned out my screams, washed me alone
Recollections, fair complexion, perfection, connection, love and protection,

Directions, wasted affections, objection, constant rejection, deliberate defection
I gave you my all, above and beyond, imperfect but true, how do you respond
I gave you me, all that I am, never enough, but I am merely a man


We had an instant, just like a gasp, I hoped you would stay, but you were too fast
We had a moment, no more than a breath, I hoped it would keep, keep me from death


Frustration, instigation, accusation, inflammation, altercation, separation, realization, revelation, communication, reconciliation, restoration, motivation, exhilaration, regeneration
They had it right, we weren't meant to be, you made it so, but I disagree

They never knew, they don't understand, you threw it away, and refused my hand
