Lyrics
The book is closed. The story's over. As I sit back and reflect on the past year. We had to know so we could move forward but the countless wars and games have led us here. Too much damage done from the words you said. It's still in my head and I just can't forgive.
Bet you thought I'd be coming back. Bet you thought I'd be on my knees begging for another shot. Bet you thought I'd regret my impulsive, reckless behavior; Saying goodbye in the blink of an eye oh but you got me wrong. When I said goodbye I meant it this time.
It took a while for me to see you were infecting my mind. I lost sight of me.
Caught in a cloud, so hard to know if the thoughts in my head were even my own. You laid the same guilt trip on me and you washed my brain. You drove me insane but now I've learned from all the pain.
Bet you thought I'd be coming back. Bet you thought I'd be on my knees begging for another shot. Bet you thought I'd regret my impulsive reckless behavior; Saying goodbye in the blink of an eye oh but you got me wrong. When I said goodbye I meant it this time.
The sharpest words can really hurt. One word can say a lot. You and your pride couldn't even apologize and I think you forgot that I'm strong and I'll move on.
Bet you thought I'd be coming back. Bet you thought I'd be on my knees begging for another shot. And I bet you thought I'd regret my impulsive reckless behavior; Saying goodbye in the blink of an eye oh but you got me wrong. When I said goodbye I meant it this time
