[Verse 1]
I wasn't there when you needed me, you never let me in your life
I didn't say what bothered me, you sure said more than that
The silence that followed didn't do us any good
And it seems like you settled for me
'Cause I was the best that you could get, but that wasn't enough
I'm not what you want and you're not the one for me

[Chorus]
I've been leaving you since the day we met
And it feels like you have too
I remember when I met you, the day I saw your smile
And now, it's time to let go, oh, it's time to feel alive

[Verse 2]
The problems I had with you are the ones you had with me
Even though we were holding on, we both know we drifted apart
I guess this is it, why bother when there's nothing left?
When neither you or me are here
Growing bitter and uncomfortably numb, losing what we had
At least we tried, but it wasn't meant to be

[Chorus]
I've been leaving you since the day we've met
And it feels like you have too
The reasons that I loved you are the ones that made me go
The reasons that I loved you, oh, I've gotta let you know

[Bridge]
I should have seen it coming, should have known what to expect
I should have seen the sign, should have known that it was wrong

[Chorus]
I've been leaving you since the day that we've met
And it feels like you have too
The reasons that I loved you are the ones that made me go
The reasons that I loved you, oh, I gotta let you know

[Outro]
I am sorry that we got here
But I'm glad, glad that we are done
I don't wanna go back there 'cause the love I felt is gone
'Cause the love I felt is gone, alright
