Asking for something that I've been searching for
Something I couldn't predict
Isn't always what it seems
Not always something legit
You were something I couldn't fathom
You came with a price
Your heart belonged to another
Something that wouldn't suffice

I walked away with a heart full of pain
And tears running down my cheek
You're someone I felt so calm with 
Where I even lost words to speak

When you were gone I couldn't shake what I felt
I never wanted anyone like this
Even after the cards were dealt
I tried to run from the pain 
Tried to escape those thought's inside
After even chatting with other women
These feelings wouldn't subside

I wanted a realistic fairytale love
But not like this 
I decided to sit with my emotions
I decided to forgive

You were still on my mind  
What I felt I couldn't hide
And then you came back
Some what of a surprise

I let you back in like nothing happened before
Looking at you again I felt emotions soar
But time shown that it was all a dream
As time passed It wasn't what it seemed

The pain started to surface
Your cracks began to show
I tried to calm your emotions 
But I ended up watching you blow

You started to shut me out
You started to put me down
I watched my smile slowly dissipate
Into an unforgettable frown

I tried to talk to you but I knew it was too much
You were consumed by too much pain
Anything I tried. Was all in vain 

Nothing I did was good enough
You always wanted more
Giving me so little
Making my heart sore 

I'm sorry for the pain you're in
And I'm sorry it'll take time
I tried to be by your side
But I didn't want to comprise 
My happiness my soul
All because of your toxicity 
Your life starting to unfold

Showing your true colors 
I finally see
What I thought I felt was real
But you're just not good for me

So I'll walk away with my head held high
And leave you where you stand
I'll never walk back to you
I'll never reach out my hand.
