Suddenly a flash of a memory
Came crashing down over me
Hit me like a train
Left me flattened on the floor
But it made me realize a whole lot more
Conclusions that seemed so far away
Turned out to be right next to me
The denial was real and it worked for awhile
Until I went to the source
That started all, washed the paint off the wall
Only to reinforce
The tone in your voice
You broke your promise to me
Left us to fend for ourselves
But who knew that it's what was best for me
At least that's what I tell myself
Well I know you don't remember what you said
But 9 years have gone, it's still fresh in my head
Don't get me wrong I know it's hard
But the worst thing to do is disregard
Your actions
How can you learn from what happened
If you don't read between the lines
You broke your promise to me
Left us to fend for ourselves
But who knew that it's what was best for me
At least that's what I tell myself
Well it feels like the first time that I've opened my eyes
I wasn't blind, just removed the hand that had covered my sight
And it was mine
