Waves

Well, I promise I'm no longer mad at you 'Cause leaving me Was the best thing that You could do 'Cause if you stayed I would never recognize That myself can never again Be compromised Well, the lies that you told me Sparked a fire A fire that set ablaze the trees The trees that were quickly burned But used to serve as my security So, thank you For doing what I could never do Turns out the last thing I needed Was you And thank you For telling me I was not enough Turns out your words built in me Some self love Well, the tears that I cried Formed an ocean An ocean that taught me How to swim Against the current of your lies That said that I'm inadequate And turns out when no one's there To save you Save you from drowning in your pain You learn real fast that it's up to you To grow from every wave
