I Needed You To Go

We used to know each other once
We were kids but never knew the problems that would fall on us
We were inseparable then
But sometimes life gets in between the things that never want to part

I can't say I know it, how you feel

Do you still wear it on your face
That mask and smile that I got used to seeing every day
The world threw you under the bus
And maybe you're still bitter or your wounds never closed up

I can't say I know it, how you feel
All that I can do is just be here
Just be here

You say you're better now
And that it all worked out
But you and I both know that it's not that simple, not that simple
The things you said last night
And that look in your eye
I know I said I'd stay
But it's not that simple, not that easy

The day we went away I left you all alone
To live a life I thought was worth the loss
I want to make this right but I'd only make it worse
I'd just come to you and say it
But it's not that simple

You say you're better now
And that it all worked out
But you and I both know that it's not that simple, not that simple
I see it in your eye
That it's just the same old lie
You tell me you're ok
But it's not that simple, not that easy
You say you're better now
And that it all worked out
But you and I both know that it's not that simple, not that easy
Not that simple, not that easy
