Tonight, I was called a heartbreaker,
but that soul doesnāt realize Iāve yet to find peace.
Iām haunted by an old being, a soul that no longer belongs here.
Like an old ghost, she keeps haunting me, unwelcomed
reminding me of the past when itās the future Iām trying to aim for.
I just want her to let me let her go,
to have her no longer search for me in the corners of her life,
to no longer set out for the attention thatās no longer hers to hold.
I wasnāt the leaving party in this parade,
she left me long before I knew how to breathe on my own,
and now Iām here, breathing,
new air and new coast lines and she knows nothing about who Iāve become.
This time I was the heartbreakee, the one who didnāt want to be left.
I lived all my life as a heartbreaker until I met her newfound soul,
and now all I know is her shadow, that haunts me awake,
and jolts me to the reality that can no longer ever exist.
She wonāt let me find peace and all I want is to move on,
to let her go like Iāve been trying so well at,
to be happy like I know I can be on my own, because Iāve seen it in this month,
my smile rediscovered and my confidence being repaired.
But she wonāt leave me be,
little pieces of her presence pop up in my everyday life, telling me sheās still trying and for what?
What she says and what she does, donāt and will never match,
I need her to let me let her go.
When will she let me find peace?
when will she finally let me let her go?
