I don’t expect this to make sense
I know it will sound selfish
But mind from heart
It may be hard
But I’ve learned to distinguish

I
I know there’s no one here to blame
I
I don’t expect you to understand
Though I know you will

I learned the hard way
Feelings won’t change
The way things need to go
But the choice I made

Turned out to be the best way
I found to let me know
What I needed to know about myself
Through the eyes
Of someone else

I leave my scars
I block my mind
Trying not to think about you
In someone’s arms
It breaks my heart
But I know you’re not here for me to claim
Though it won’t ease the pain
I’m too in deep to change
Something now

I learned the hard way
Feelings won’t change
The way things need to go
But the choice I made
Turned out to be the best way
I found to let me know
What I needed to know about myself
Through the eyes of someone else

I can put it in a thousand words
But it wouldn’t explain
No, it won’t be enough
You know I know all there is to know 'bout your feelings bae
But my heart still burns
I
I keep on being honest
Each time to find
There’s still plenty in my chest
To learn from
To learn from

I learned the hard way
Feelings won’t change
The way things need to go
But the choice I made
Turned out to be the best way
I found to let me know
What I needed to know about myself
Through the eyes of someone else
Someone else

I
I keep on being honest
Each time to find
There’s still plenty in my chest
To learn from
To learn from
