What happens when you build someone up
Just to knock them over
Like that,
The way you did (when you left me just laying there)
All that's left to do is pick yourself up
To the best of your ability
And pull yourself together
What else is there to do
Just know
That the feelings I thought
We shared were all one-sided
(My side, never yours)
Know that the love wasn't real
(Your love wasn't real, never there)
What to do when your confidence in someone
Leaves you a day late and a dollar short
And a trillion steps behind
I'm still looking for answers to
The question in my heart
I just don't want you to know that
What's the worst thing
I can't say
I can't force you to love me on your own initiative
Anyway
In my heart the peace of mind
Knowing that I was right
All along
Love was never meant to be a battle between
My mind and heart,
My body all this time
Helplessly watching
How do you rebound from rejection and refusal
I went into self-destruct
Instead of reconstruction
Help me bounce back and repair myself
For a boundless grace I've never felt
