Why Did I Let You Catch Me
Why did I let you catch me
When I was falling down
Couldn't I just let myself
Finally hit the ground
Would've been much better there
Instead I held on to you
Let you take control of me
Now it's time we're through
Never thought it would come to this
You left me here with no choice
Thought you would call all the shots
But today I finally have a voice
It's telling you to leave me alone
To cut your losses and be on your way
All this time you caused me pain
I opened my eyes and now I won't stay
I'll walk away and not look back
You were never anything to look back on
Neither were our dreams and memories
Everything we had is too far gone
We can't get any of it back
You can blame yourself for that one
I tried my hardest to make it work
But it looks as though you finally won
You got exactly what you wanted
And that was to be rid of me
I can't say that I am too surprised
This was how it was supposed to be
So I will sit here and cut my losses
And at the same time I'll cut out my heart
I'll lay the pieces down at your feet
And one day it will tear you apart
One day you will realize what you gave up
You may even try to come crawling back
But we both know I won't have that
Because what I need is what you lack
So don't you even bother trying
To make up for all this time we lost
Nothing you do or say will make this up
I've paid far more than my share of the cost
