Why love just a little bit less
I don't know what you're thinking
I can't help you decide
Did it help you to decide
This piece of the picture
It just doesn't fit
I don't believe that you chose to leave
Just remember this

And I still love you
Not for who you were to me
But what you could have been
What I will strive to be
Just close your mouth and you would see like me
Your price of dignity is far too cheap
You'll never know you're not here to see
And there's nothing left to gain

And I still love you
Not for who you were to me
But what you could have been
What I will strive to be
What I will strive to be
Maybe you weren't the monster
You always seemed to be
Now I'm left in your shadow
Your truth won't set me free

And I still love you
Not for who you were to be
But what you could have been
Unlike you, I'll claim my life
Maybe you weren't the monster
You always seemed to be
Now I'm left in your shadow
Your truth won't set me free

You've won out
But you won't get the best of me
And I'm worn down
But I still believe
You're torn now
And you're left here to bleed
Your safe house
Is nowhere to be seen
Nowhere to be seen
I believe it ends
