This one I tried, I really did,
But you left me behind.
You told me that you loved me,
Then you told me you hated me.
I thought I could move on,
I guess I thought wrong.
I’m too young to have cried so many tears,
Yet you forced them out of me.
You tore my soul away,
And fled to your safe haven,
Leaving me alone here.
Through all this, I realized,
What you took had never been mine.
I didn’t need your false love,
I needed the truth.
Finally, I found it.
I smiled and decided to go on,
To leave you in an ancient memory.
So, I left you behind,
I really did.
I didn’t even have to try.
