Moving Along

Location

I want to believe that everything you've said is true,
but I just can't trust myself to trust in you.
You've told me lies, you've made me cry.
I'd stay up all night trying to figure out why.
Looking back, I can remember our good days,
but the good can't make the bad go away.
I needed your love; instead, I got abuse.
I needed your time; instead, you cut me loose.
Now I know it's okay because you made me strong,
and now I know how to move along.
I'm sorry, but this time you don't get me back.
I'm so tired of hearing your skipping track.
It's taken a while for me to get to the end,
but now I'm done, I'm over trying to pretend.
