stop beating around the bush
stop pulling on my heartstrings
tell me that you don't want me in your life
so that i finally have an excuse to leave
you always told me
you wanted the best for me
but i think it's best
that you stay away
i think it's best if we split
went our separate ways
and never crossed paths again
it would be good for both of us
it's gonna be tough on me
you were my best friend
you filled the void in my life
that had gone empty for years
so you can avoid me all you want
you can walk past me in the halls
but you can't deny the feeling you get
that wretched feeling in your stomach
as much as i want you in my life
i can see that you've changed
changed for the worse
you've lost all self-control
and you're spiraling into insanity
and honestly, i'm scared of you
i don't want to be around you
i don't want to associate myself with you,
because then i'll lose myself
i have my standards
and i thought you did too
but you're throwing your life away
so what do i do now?
i can only do so much for myself
and i can only ask for so much from you
and so i'll ask you once again
to tell me that you don't want me in your life
so i can tell you that i don't want you in mine
