You can't take away from me who I am

You say I should be more like you
Too blind to see I'm way much more
For some time your word was ultimate
This day, with myself I'm intimate

I'm no longer trying to follow you
The trace of your steps was erased
Along with your lessons, so untrue
and the ideas you sold me: replaced.

I fell in your lies for a long time
of all your prays the dumbest one,
I know after a few wise lines I've herd,
Don't need your approval to find my worth.

My mistake was to become close with you
I knew the better things I could choose
From afar you seemed exactly what you are
Now your eyes start in mine an inner war

I'm deaf to other people's advice
Your promises used to sound nice
Made me believe I took the wrong road,
Nothing worse than the one you showed.

Things haven't ever been so clear,
to resemble you is what I fear.
My hope in you will always live,
But any other chance I won't give.

It requires an end to understand.

We all have someone who makes us go a little bit further,
Someone for who we'd do anything so life looked a bit better.
We all have an unique thing which is worth all of our free time,
Writing wouldn't be mine, if I didn't mention you in every line.

No matter if I'm crying as I painfully realize truth in your eyes,
Or if I can't stop smiling for words you put together some nights,
As with every situation I'm learning, reasons are what I'm earning.

I found you in my way so I could trip and fall into a new reality,
I fell into you so I could find my way out of every single dream.
I've been dreamin' of you so I can tell apart lies from veracity,
I see the truth and how unreal my feelings towards you now seem.

You make it hard for me to still want to risk my emotions,
With your constant change of mind, your feelings and its motions,
I'm tired of attempting to understand what's in your head,
Mister, with all this pretending, destruction is where we're led.

The thought of losing you used to be like a hurricane to my mind,
Now it looks like after chaos, only tranquility there is to find.
I can't claim to know it all, but about you I figured everything out,
You offer me trivial things, while I offer you the benefit of the doubt.


You made me feel understood, now I can't define my mood,
You said the meaningful words that changed my perception,
I used to think that of all men, you were an exception.
Was it that you changed or that all you are, is a big disappointment?

The first time I saw you, I thought you were completely a blank,
Then as we laughed and cried you managed to change my mind.
You should've never let me see the foundations of what we had built,
At this time I can honestly say, that blank was never really filled.

New way

Tell me friend where have you been in these times of horrid despair?
Your words like echoes in my ears, they're taken away by the air,
Whatever injured my heart's reason yesterday, today it seems so far
JUst as if our decisions where trapped in a never ending war

I used to think the final statement was on you, then I changed my mind
Cause I seemed to always know about your plans, and whatever was behind
The tricky lines you spoke to get what you want, you know I used to like
Are now the ones that gets me on the line, close to my final strike

Who would have ever thought that it was you that I needed all along,
And that when our minds souls and hearts where one, I wouldn't be strong
Now I'm trapped on the design that everybody made about you and me
I know it's not what I desire, and to be honest I feel the need to leave

It can take me a second, a day or a whole song,
Until I break their chains and move along...
And the way how I love you will be the only change,
Even if losing a part of me seems a little bit strange

So this is the zone everyone that asked me to get real talked about
In this place where I stand your sadness can no longer make me sad,
From now on I offer you a shoulder to cry on, but no longer my heart,
I was wrong when I thought emotions where something I couldn't live without

With this I'm hoping to finally get back my reason and my will.
for now I won't let false words thrill whatever I may feel,
Maybe now I'm able to fulfill what you where looking for since we met,
I just hope that when you realize what I turned into, you won't regret.

It can take me a second, a day or a whole song,
Until I break their chains and move along...
And the way how I love you will be the only change,
Even if losing a part of me seems a little bit strange

With my last chance for a felling I will choose you,
I swear my intentions and confessions where always true.
But this is a new day, a new me, and a completly new way.
