The Reason

I still see you when my eyes are closed
I hear you piercing through the silence
I've learned through love so much violence
From an emotional standpoint
And right now I can't pinpoint the cause of all this
"Getting over you" is what they call this
When I signed up I didn't ask for all this, or maybe I did
You learn love is beautiful as a kid
But the truth somehow hidden
Love is pain, whoever said that wasn't kidding
Line after line I have written
In the hopes the letters will erase what I can't seem to be forgetting
I guess I'm living, because this feels like death
I beat this idea over and over until there is none left
To the point that I'm fatigued and out of breath
What's left?
Hopefully a friendship that's why I had to end this
Constant conversation because you being my ex
And new found friend had too close of a relation
I couldn't appreciate you for who you are
Because the distance between "then" and "friends" wasn't too far
So this is the distance I believe is needed
And I apologize if you feel cheated
A letter to you, part of me kinda hopes you read it
To give you explanation that I couldn't explain
Because honestly from yesterday to today, I feel the same
Pain, confusion, all kinds of stuff
This is tough
But in my mind it feels right and necessary
You probably feel so secondary in a line of importance in mind
Well you're right about that
But know that leaving you is the best way for you to get me back...
