Everything You Want Me To Be

And no, I don't care
I'll be better on my own

You said I let you down
You needed out somehow
I'm standing in your way
Told me it's over now

How could I state my case?
How could I dig you up?
You just left me the rest seemed
To break down too easy

They cut me, your words
As they pass right through, she said

You're fake and you slow me down
You had your chance, and it's over now
Quit asking if my mind will change
And no, I don't care
I'll be better on my own

A month goes by
I barely hear your voice
I tried to give you space
I tried to be alone
Then I stopped

And then you showed your face
You made it back somehow
Told me, you'd been thinking
You wanted me to spend my time
To set you free, to lift you up
Like you did for me
To be there for you
To make sense of things
To be everything you want me to be

They cut me, your words
As they pass right through, I said

You're fake and you slow me down
You had your chance, and it's over now
Quit asking if my mind will change
And no, I don't care
I'll be better on my own
I'll be better on my own

We had our chance
Said our goodbyes
I'm so much better, dead set
I won't change my mind
We had our chance
Said our goodbyes
This time, nothing's changing

You're fake and you slow me down
You had your chance, and it's over now
Quit asking if my mind will change
And no, I don't care
I'm so much better on my own
And no, I don't care
I'll be better on my own
I'll be better on my own
