THE OTHER SIDE

ONE MORE DAY THAT THIS SAD PARTING BECOMES REAL
ONE MORE DAY MY SYMPATHY FOR YOU DISAPPEARS
NOW THERE IS NOTHING LEFT
NO MORE FEELING SORRY, NO MORE BEING WEAK
NO MORE CRAWLING BACK
NO MORE APOLOGIZING FOR WHAT I NEVER DID
JUST THE TRUTH TO LIVE WITH
JUST ANOTHER DOOR BETWEEN US
ONE THAT WILL FOREVER KEEP US APART
A DOOR IN WHICH YOU HELPED CREATE
A DOOR IN WHICH OUR SECRETS LIE
THINGS DARK AND UNKNOWN, WHERE I LIVE
YEARS OF PAIN AND ANGER, FRUSTRATIONS AND SORROWS ON THE OTHER SIDE, WHERE YOU CANNOT CROSS OVER
WHERE YOU CANNOT GET BACK THE CHILD YOU THREW AWAY
REACHING OUT, CHANCE AFTER CHANCE I HAVE GIVEN YOU BUT NOW MY TOUCH HAS GONE COLD AND FOR YOU I HAVE NOTHING MORE
FORCING YOU TO FACE REALITY
SLAPPING YOU ON THE FACE AND NOW YOU WAKE UP
LOOKING AROUND TO SEE WHAT YOU HAVE DONE
THE BLOOD ON YOUR HANDS, AND NOW YOU ARE SORRY
NOW YOU ARE ALONE, NO ONE THERE, AND THIS IS THE PART IN THE STORY WHERE I COME RUNNING BACK
BUT THIS STORY WILL NEVER SEE THAT ENDING AGAIN
THIS STORY YOU CAN HAVE
THIS BROKEN HEART IS HEALING AND YOU WILL
NEVER FIND YOUR PLACE IN IT AGAIN
THESE WOUNDS NO LONGER BLEED FOR YOU
THESE TEARS NO LONGER FALL AND THE ONLY REGRET I HAVE IS HOW MUCH OF MY LIFE I'VE WASTED ON YOU
SEEING WHAT YOU USED TO BE AND WHAT YOU HAVE BECOME NOW
SEEING, WHAT I ALLOWED YOU TO MAKE ME INTO AND SOMETHING CLOSE TO HATE I NOW FEEL
KNOWING THAT I WILL NEVER SEE YOUR FACE AGAIN
HEARING THE SOUND OF YOUR VOICE DIE AWAY AND FINDING WHAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE
I'M OK AND I DON'T NEED YOU, I NEVER HAVE AND I NEVER WILL
I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ALONE AND YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN A MOTHER
I'VE SAID MY GOODBYE TO YOU AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN
IT'S TOO LATE FOR ANOTHER TRY AND I'M DONE
I HAVE NO REASON TO GO BACK AND I DON'T WANT TO
I'M LETTING GO
