• I had to leave,
    I hope you understand
    That everything I did
    Wasn’t the original plan.
    You wanted to keep me,
    Hold on forever,
    But the ties we had
    I was forced to sever.
    It couldn’t continue,
    I wasn’t the right girl.
    I’m an edgy rock,
    But you wanted a pearl.

    I had to leave
    All of this behind
    Without a trace
    For you to find.
    I’m not right for you,
    I cause destruction.
    Where your heart loves,
    Mine would malfunction.
    Do you see me now?
    Yes, I look disgusting.
    My hope is dying,
    My heart rusting.

    I had to leave
    So you could win
    This game of life
    Without any sin.
    I say I’m weak,
    You say I’m strong;
    I was right,
    You were wrong.
