V1 :
Maybe if I had to say.
You would be so hurt in the process.
You would rend yourself as worthless.
Maybe if I made the choice to run away.
I would have a smile brighter than the sun.
I could hide all the pain from everyone.
You weren't the only one.
If I saw the devil, I would rebuke him.
But dare I say it, you look just like him.
Pre-Chorus :
I will rise out of this hell.
Each secret I'll never tell.
'Cause you've already said them.
Chorus :
You were the best thing that ever happened to me.
Which is also why I have to leave.
Because you're not the true one for me.
I need to let you go.
Need to let you go.
I'm crawling out of the hole you buried me in.
We're built to fall apart.
'Cause we would argue again and again.
I need to let you go.
Need to let you go.
V2 :
My tears fall 'cause I knew the truth.
All I wanted was for you to say it.
So it wouldn't be as bad when we end this.
No matter what, all I got was lies from you.
If I had a nickel for every lie you whispered to my lips.
You would've been dead by each poisoned kiss.
Pre-Chorus :
I wanna feel really good.
Instead you made shine on the surface.
Everyone likes how it looks.
I hate it completely.
Chorus :
You were the best thing that ever happened to me.
Which is also why I have to leave.
Because you're not the true one for me.
I need to let you go.
Need to let you go.
I'm crawling out of the hole you buried me in.
We're built to fall apart.
'Cause we would argue again and again.
I need to let you go.
Need to let you go.
Closing :
I'm ready to let you go.
I'm ready to let you go.
'Cause you need to know.
You need to know.
You're the best thing.
That's ever happened to me.
