It took longer than expected
Well at least my heart never left it
As in it, I'm talking about you
And my heart knew, it's lies we're never true
But It had fun, pretending you were mine
I was high on it's delusions, I was cloud nine

"Cause it's on again, off again, love you like oxygen"
Lyrics to a song I liked, which didn't help me
Because my love grew stronger, my faithful enemy
Getting over you took a while as I deleted all my crush files
But now I'm here, after crawling a 1000 miles
I've finally left my ifs and buts, and tough trials

I'm free at last, and behind I left a lovestruck past
I'm tired of pretending I had a chance
It's better if I stop trying, "I'm tired, I just can't"
Continue with wishing to a shooting star
Which always told me we were growing apart
Our lives and our journey was never same
I should long have end this painful game

To anyone else who's a trying fool
Please don't fall in love for too long too
It's fun while you're high and their apart of your lives
But when that burning fire dies
Don't hold on to the burnt matchstick
You'll just burn your hand and get yourself sick
But I had fun, pretending you were mine
I was high on my delusions, I was cloud nine
