Moving On

You're fading from my imagination
I'm finally ready to let go
Honey, you're not my priced possession
I am no longer holding on
I'm different now
I need to do what's better for myself
It's not some power play
It's self respect
And I'm not sorry that I'm leaving
I won't apologize for who I am
I can't believe I wasted all these years
On something that was so depressing
The sparkle in my eyes was drowned by the tears
You left me broken on the floor obsessing
Old habits die hard, I won't forget you
I'm still stressing
Still searching for your face in crowds
But one of these days
Your voice will be so faint so distant
It will never fully go away
The thing is that I wouldn't listen
And at the same time I would not resist
I would just let it be there
Like the darkness is a background to the stars
This world... it needs such contrast
One day I'll meet a stranger who'll be everything you never were
I needed you to show me pain
For him to teach me love
