Cut the Ties

You used to tell me that I'm useless That I'd never get too far Cuz everyone around me knows that I'm a fraud that quits when things get hard And I believed you for way too long You got in my head, made me stumble and fall But I know that That everything you said was wrong Now I'm doing fine I'm taking back my life From all the pain you gave to me I don't really know Just how far I'll go But you won't be around to see I hope you're starting to get past this And that you realize what your words do Cause everyone around you knows that you're no good and they see the real you No one believes you or all your lies It's so pathetic, trying to crawl back to my life And you know that That everything you said was wrong Now I'm doing fine I'm taking back my life From all the pain you gave to me I don't really know Just how far I'll go But you won't be around to see Now you're gone away from me And I can breathe Your hands no longer clutched around my neck I hope that you can see You wounded me But scars can fade unlike your ugliness Now I'm doing fine I'm taking back my life From all the pain you gave to me I don't really know Just how far I'll go But you won't be around to see Now I'm doing fine I'm taking back my life I don't really know Just how far I'll go But you won't be around to see
