You weren’t there, you didn’t care,
What I used to be wasn’t free.
So young and gullible, blinded from the truth,
Living in a fantasy world full of lies,
Somehow I knew it wasn’t real,
But I wanted to believe otherwise,
I wanted to believe you weren’t who they said you were.
They tried to remove the mask that blinded my eyes,
It was like a cast that I despise,
Never realizing that you were lying to me.
Trying to be something you ain’t ever gonna be.
Why didn’t you give it a chance?
Were you in some type of trance?
I was the luggage left behind,
And you thought that was just fine.
You pretend that everything’s OK,
‘Cuz you’re afraid of what they might say.
It’s about time you learned something,
So now start listening.
No more crying, no more tears,
No more heartaches, no more fears.
No manipulation, no determination.
Just answer me this,
Was I ever good enough to begin with?
