Why now?

I had finally let you go

Here you are, trying to find a way back in

I never thought you’d sink so low.

 

I thought I had gotten rid of you a long time ago

So where have you been?

I had finally let you go

 

I gave up, and made you my foe

You play this game ‘cause you know you’ll win

I never thought you’d sink so low

 

My life had just begun to regrow

My feelings are now stretched thin

I had finally let you go

 

You kept me in the dark, I was in your shadow

You were nothing but a sin

I never thought you’d sink so low

 

If only I could forget everything, then I would never know

I wish to go back to the time when

I had finally let you go

I never thought you’d sink so low
