It is time to let you go
I have the strength to do it
I know that it will hurt
But it's time to let you go
Yes you have your issues
Ones that aren't your fault
You took it out on me
Now it's time to stop
I know it will hurt you
harder than you've been hurt before
It's time to let you go though
Yet I don't have the heart to let you know
You hurt me again and again
even after we talked and you said you'd stop
your promises aren't reliable
these problems aren't deniable
Though we're underage
you said we should do something we shouldn't
responsibly I declined
so you hurt me til' I cried
You won't hurt me anymore, I won't let you.
I know that it will hurt
You more than me
But I have to let you go
So maybe someday I'll be free
From your abusive words and captive leads
In the end, it will be worth it
So this is my goodbye
Though I'll never say it in person
I hope you find this tonight
I pray that you will heal
find better friends and lives
though it hurts me to hurt you
I'm done being the target of your knives
I'll remember the good memories
as we did have plenty of those
but our friendship had more thorns than petals on a dying rose
It's time to let you go, now.
It's time to let you go.
