Lyrics
0:14I have nightmares each week about that Friday in May
0:17One phone call from you and my entire world was changed
0:21Trust that you betrayed confusion that still lingers
0:25You took everything I loved and crushed it in between your fingers
0:28And I doubt you ever think about the damage that you did
0:32But I hold on to every detail like my life depends on it
0:36My undying love now I hold it like a grudge
0:40And I hear your voice every time that I think I'm not enough
0:43And I try to be tough but I wanna scream
0:47How could anybody do the things you did so easily
0:51And I say I don't care I say that I'm fine
0:55But you know I can't let it go I've tried
0:57I've tried I've tried for so long
1:02It takes strength to forgive but I don't feel strong
1:09The arguments that I have won against you in my head
1:13In the shower in the car and in the mirror before bed
1:16Yeah I'm so tough when I'm alone and I make you feel so guilty
1:20And I fantasize about a time you're a little ******* sorry
1:24And I try to understand why you would do this all to me
1:27You must be insecure you must be so unhappy
1:31And I know in my heart hurt people hurt people
1:35And we both drew blood but man those cuts were never equal
1:39And I try to be tough but I wanna scream
1:43How could anybody do the things you did so easily
1:46And I say I don't care I say that I'm fine
1:50But you know I can't let it go I've tried
1:53I've tried I've tried for so long
1:57It takes strength to forgive but I don't feel strong
2:04Ooh do you think I deserved it all
2:12Ooh your flower's filled with vitriol
2:19You built me up to watch me fall
2:23You have everything and you still want more
2:27I try to be tough I try to be mean
2:31But even after all this you're still everything to me
2:34And I know you don't care I guess that that's fine
2:38But you know I can't let it go I've tried
2:41I've tried I've tried for so long
2:45It takes strength to forgive but I'm not quite sure I'm there yet
2:53It takes strength to forgive but
I have nightmares each week about that Friday in May One phone call from you and my entire world was changed Trust that you betrayed confusion that still lingers You took everything I loved and crushed it in between your fingers And I doubt you ever think about the damage that you did But I hold on to every detail like my life depends on it My undying love now I hold it like a grudge And I hear your voice every time that I think I'm not enough And I try to be tough but I wanna scream How could anybody do the things you did so easily And I say I don't care I say that I'm fine But you know I can't let it go I've tried I've tried I've tried for so long It takes strength to forgive but I don't feel strong The arguments that I have won against you in my head In the shower in the car and in the mirror before bed Yeah I'm so tough when I'm alone and I make you feel so guilty And I fantasize about a time you're a little ******* sorry And I try to understand why you would do this all to me You must be insecure you must be so unhappy And I know in my heart hurt people hurt people And we both drew blood but man those cuts were never equal And I try to be tough but I wanna scream How could anybody do the things you did so easily And I say I don't care I say that I'm fine But you know I can't let it go I've tried I've tried I've tried for so long It takes strength to forgive but I don't feel strong Ooh do you think I deserved it all Ooh your flower's filled with vitriol You built me up to watch me fall You have everything and you still want more I try to be tough I try to be mean But even after all this you're still everything to me And I know you don't care I guess that that's fine But you know I can't let it go I've tried I've tried I've tried for so long It takes strength to forgive but I'm not quite sure I'm there yet It takes strength to forgive but
