I'll Let You Know

We used to be an us
But now it's just you and me
Just me
I wasn't ready to give you all of me
But I knew what I was giving wasn't enough
All the things I said,
You have to understand what you did to me
I'm sure you're getting tired of listening to me
But you should know
Just how much I'm not willing to let go
You just gave up
On us, on me
I was expecting it,
But not to hurt this much.
I would have waited for you
I was planning on always being there
So for me to find out, like this, from her
Well you deserve to hear all I have to bear
We used to be an us,
But now it's just you and me
Just me
You told me you wouldn't leave me behind
Well here I am, choking on the dust
Sometimes I wish that time would fast forward or rewind
But here I am, just stuck
You didn't allow enough time
So what once bloomed...
Is now wilting but unwilling to die.
