You Think You Broke My Heart
You think you broke my heart
When you said goodbye
You did me a favor
Breaking my heart liberated me to see
That love is not a jail
To which we are sentenced
That real love never wants to hold prisoners
That it sets us free to come and go as we please
That day you nailed my soul to an imaginary wall
The day you told me that I was not the right woman for you
Was the day you set me free
You see there is nothing as horrible as faked affection
Faked affection is worse than abuse
I love you for it
My heart was truer than the ground was moist
And you lost that true heart
And I thought I was the loser
But I won back my soul
And learned that letting go.. even if it kills me, is better than hanging onto a lie
You set me free
My love never left you
But please don’t talk to me to save your feelings
Love me enough to let me suffer
Love me enough to hurt me and let me go baby.
