Letting You Go

You always said if you love something, set it free
If it loves you, it will come back
I set you free without you even realising it
I cut my throat the same day I helped you and her

I don't know if that worked out
But I know it hurt a lot
I know it took a lot of courage to tell her about your love
That love was supposed to be for me
Only it wasn't
I told the world, You were a joke
A desperate attempt
A bad hangover
And only I knew you weren't, aren't and maybe never will be

I know that I've always loved you
And at this moment feels like I always will

I let you go, maybe you never were mine...

All those late night calls
When you spoke about her, felt like I had tasted poison
Like someone stabbed me in the back
Felt like salt on open wound
But I know it wasn't your fault
My unspoken love for you is hard to hide....
but not impossible
Unlike the never ending pain I go through.
