Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Well I remember being nervous
As I knocked on your door
You smiled and kissed my forehead
And my strength hit the floor

Well I had the best of intentions
Giving you a second chance
Telling myself I walked right into the knife you stabbed in my back

Well I'm ok and I will be ok
Better off alone than stuck with you anyway
And I'm alright I will be alright
Just don't turn on the light

Well you sat around
Waiting for perfect
When almost perfect walked right by
Well I know that your struggling
To find what you need to find

Pushing me away didn't do you any favors
I just thought you should know
Asking for me back didn't do you one either
But that's the way life goes

And I'm ok and I will be ok
Who did you think you were fooling with those lies anyway
And I'm alright I will be alright
Just don't turn on the light

Well I never claimed to be perfect
And heaven knows that you weren't
We were perfect for each other
Weren't we
Weren't we

But my mistakes kept you from seeing
But my mistakes kept you from believing
And all we needed to do
All we needed to do
All we needed to do was walk away
Walk away
Far away oh
From blacklight
