You changed my world with a look

You saw my face through the crowds

As soon as we met you had me on the hook

And I shouted it from rooftops, I felt so proud

You loved me so fiercely that I burned

Now you’ll only be left with ashes

There was some you missed, a yearn

You saw us only with rose-colored classes

You missed the most important part

You weren’t looking at me truly

It all happened from the start

You thought my emotions were unruly

You never tried to be my rock

You couldn’t see how hard it was

To try and be perfect, it was a shock

And now I know you were the cause

You made me feel invalid and fragile

But now I chose myself

I now know I can be agile

I will no longer put my heart on a shelf

I will never be perfect like you

I have to love this person that I am

Now for certain we are through

And I am no longer that shy little lamb
