So, have you lost them yet?
All these things you're trying to forget
Like the man you've become, like the sound of the hum
From the plane that I rode home
And the way that you've marred what was left of a heart
So it's easier to be alone
Now, a lover is a curse
A lie or alone, I don't know which is worse
'Cause if you never fall, you're immune to it all
And you'll never have to know
What it's like to exist as a name on a list
Of places not to go
And I am starting to see
I never needed you like you needed me
'Cause, my dear, you're a coward, just hungry for power
But I will not let you win
For my voice and my heart, every piece, every part
Are stronger than my skin
And for those too afraid to see what you have made
Their paths will wander on
But I'm more than my scars, more than yours, more than ours
And sometimes you just need to be gone
