Tears of relief leave my eyes.
I've never cried about us,
about everything we never were.

I've never really teared my eyes for you,
but it feels like all this time
I've been only hurting myself
without even knowing.

Tears of relief leave my eyes
because I'm finally setting free
this feeling I didn't know it was with me.

I was all these things,
and you made me feel like I wasn't enough.
I've been harsh on myself
because you made me feel I was not good,
and I was good enough.

I'm crying tears of relief
because now I can see what I made myself go through,
tears of fear,
of emptiness,
of loneliness,
tears of relief,
because I've finally realized
it was not me
it was you
and everything you made me go through.
