for the first time in a while
i don't hate myself today
i poured out my soul
and sure there was pain
but to be free from captured thoughts
and seeing the visions play out
almost exactly how they did in my mind
i feel almost unshackled now
and for the first time ever
i'm not afraid of the outcome
i'll still feel a lot
but i won't regret much in the long run
i can't change your mind
i cant even change mine
and as much as i want to make things right
i can't continue if this is just gonna be another fight
and i won't feel bad for shutting us down
because if we can't listen to what the other is saying
who are we kidding
and what is the reason for staying

i've finally got nothing to prove
if i can find happiness without you
then that is what i'll choose
and i hope you do too
