You Held Me Back

Now it's not like before and I know it will never be
But there are still a few scenes that appear from time to time
In my head
Do they go away? I hope someday

I gave you my light without realising it belongs to someone else
Shouldn't have let you leave me standing there so emptily
'Cause I would not have learned
To recognise my worth 'cause you, you held me
'Cause you held me back
You held me back

I don't have a lot to lose 'cause there is not much that I need
And I've won even more than you gave me
I'm putting myself back together
Oh until, until I find some peace (find some peace)

I gave you my light without realising it belongs to someone else
Shouldn't have let you leave me standing there so emptily
'Cause I would not have learned
To recognise my worth 'cause you, you held me
'Cause you held me back
You held me back

All the pain from the truth
All the lies around you
I don't see that no more
'Cause that was then
And now I'm here
There's no more us
And I'm better off without you

I've found my light
Now I realised who it is
I filled this void inside myself and it's okay it wasn't you
'Cause I would not have learned
To recognise my worth 'cause you, you held me
'Cause you held me back
You held me back
You held me back
