Cutting Ties

I'm not ready
To give you up again
I can't regret it, though
I think we were born to end
You said "I'm not happy"
I said "Won't you tell me why?"
You said that you don't know
You were never one to try

I feel defeated
Like it was all for naught
You said you'd never leave
But you did, I guess you forgot
I'm still holding on
To any thread that I can find
But you hold the scissors
And I know you love cutting ties
(Ooh, Ooh)

Do you regret it?
You tore our home to the ground
Did you watch it
As you slowly burned it down?
I'm still inside
Can't you hear me scream?
Or am I too late
Did you turn your back on everything?
(Ooh, Ooh)

Baby, I've tried to understand
But I don't think anybody can
What you did was beyond human
It's a Hellish force that I'm feeling

I've tried so hard to let you go
But my heart keeps telling me no
And I wanna hate you so damn bad
But I love you, boy, I wish I never had
(Ooh, Ooh)

I'm not ready
To give you up again
I can't regret it, though
I think we were born to end
You said "I'm not happy"
I said "Won't you tell me why?"
You said that you don't know
You were never one to try
(Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Hm)
