Vain Lyrics

Standing right by the fire but it still feels cold

Closing my eyes while I picture the story unfold

And truth be told it really hurts me say

I know you want me to stay

But I'm still leaving today

Reach for my phone but you keep blocking my hand

Asking me why I'm leaving and if it was planned

What does it really matter, I've made up my mind

Now I'm moving ahead, never looking behind

I could have left you on your own and I

I could've said a lot of things you don't condone and I

I could've made you feel my pain

Could've done it in vain just to make you feel alone and I

I still gave my all to you

I still gave you all that I had

I still held you close to my heart, even when you would tear me apart

Some of the things I had passion about

I left behind cause I thought that I was hearing you out

By giving you a little something less to worry for

And now I realize I should've trusted myself more

But I feel like what else could I do

You want me to trust that what you say is true

You get what you give, I should stick to myself

Cause I'm better of this way it'll be okay

I could have left you on your own and I

I could've said a lot of things you don't condone and I

I could've made you feel my pain

Could've done it in vain just to make you feel alone and I

I still gave my all to you

I still gave you all that I had

I still held you close to my heart, even when you would tear me apart

I still remember when I told you what's mine is always yours

That was before I noticed you change behind closed doors

I can see it written on your heart it's a curse

I did all I could for you but you didn't in reverse

So take this as my reasoning for stepping forward alone

I don't need your presence, I'll be better off on my own

Could've done this a while ago, but I just thought you should know

I never wanted it to end this way

I could have left you on your own and I

I could've said a lot of things you don't condone and I

I could've made you feel my pain

Could've done it in vain just to make you feel alone and I

I still gave my all to you

I still gave you all that I had

I still held you close to my heart, even when you would tear me apart
