From the recording How You Feel - Instrumental/Karaoke
Lyrics
You promised me the world
And on the surface it was a possibility
And for a time all was good
Until reality crept in ever so slowly
The whole time was a test
Of who I was and who I was going to be
And I was looking for the best
But most of the time the worst came out of me
But now there’s no more negativity
I’m on my own and I can’t believe that it’s real
I’m so tired of suffering
And now you know that you never owned me
There’s no best of you I’m free
I got away from the enemy
What’s your name again
What’s your name again
I forgot
I didn’t know any better
I let too much go, I couldn't see there could be something else
And you were high on control and you were never coming down
I started to lose myself
In the ways of your world
I was living with the lies, they became the truth and then
I realized I was lost, all but gone
But now there’s no more negativity
I’m on my own and I can’t believe that it’s real
I’m so tired of suffering
And now you know that you never owned me
There’s no best of you I’m free
I got away from the enemy
What’s your name again
What’s your name again
I forgot
Life is so much better than it was
I now know that I was the calm
I’m the place where my kids call home
They’ll never know, no, they’ll never know
What I’ve lived, the hell, it’s almost gone
I got a little bit left to build on
I’ve got too much to give, too much to live
I let it go too long
Too long
I’ll never look back, back again
