I'm writing this to you

Telling you we're through

I can't take you anymore

Don't know what I liked you for

All you did was wear me out

Now I know what you're all about

You came to me with promise and joy

Now look at all the things you destroy

Families, lives, bank accounts you see

You ruined it all with one little tease

Look at the way you make me feel

Then you take it all and want me to steal

Why can't you just go and hide

Somewhere far away where I'll never find

Everyone at home doesn't understand

How you rip me apart, then lend me a hand

I keep coming back thinking inside

Maybe this time I'll make you my bride

Then I sit and wonder why

Why do you really want me to die

Thousands and thousands come to you

Hoping and praying you'll help them through

Then they fall for your lending hand

Only to realize you're nothing but a scam

You promised me heaven and sent me to hell

You ruined my life and then wished me well

Watch me now as I go on my way

I'm washing myself of all of your pain

So you and your power can just leave me be

I'm taking my life and setting it free
