Power

I let you control me as long as I could take.

I never let myself get out of your sight, 

hiding behind the fact that you wanted the best for me.

Somehow this was all in love and I just couldn't see that until I got older.

But you hurt me.

You went out of your way to hurt me when we had just started over.

You ruined me and everything we could've been.

And it's my fault for letting everyone I love go.

It's my fault for being the one that got away.
