i was a girl you was a man
i was too young to understand
i was naive i just believed
everything that you told me
said you were strong protecting me
then i found out that you were weak
keepin me there under your thumb
cuz you were scared that i'd become
much more than you could handle
shinin like a chandelier
that decorated every room
inside the private hell we built
and i dealt with it
like a kid i wished
i could fly away
but instead i
kept my tears inside cuz i knew if i
started i'd keep cryin for the rest of my
life with you i finally built up the strength to walk away
don't regret it but i still live with the side effects
wakin up scared some nights still dreamin bout them violent times
still a little protective bout the people that i let inside
still a little defensive thinkin folk be tryna run my life
still a little depressed inside i fake a smile
and deal with the side effects
thinking inside no one was there
couldn't be real had to keep quiet
once in a while put up a fight
it's just too much night after night
after a while i would just lie
you was dead wrong said you was right
did what i could just to survive
couldn't believe this was my life
flickerin like a candle
doin my best to handle
sleeping with the enemy
aware that he was smothering
every last part of me
so i broke away
and finally found the strength
to leave
kept my tears inside cuz i knew if i
started i'd keep cryin for the rest of my
life with you i finally built up the strength to walk away
don't regret it but i still live with the side effects
wakin up scared some nights still dreamin bout them violent times
still a little protective bout the people that i let inside
still a little defensive thinkin folk be tryna run my life
still a little depressed inside i fake a smile
and deal with the side effects
forgive but i can't forget
every day i deal with this
i live with the side effects
but i ain't gonna let
them get the best of me
