Waves

Gatton

Well, I promise
I′m no longer mad at you
'Cause leaving meWas the best thing that
You could do

′Cause if you stayed
I would never recognize
That myself can never again
Be compromised

Well, the lies that you told me
Sparked a fire
A fire that set ablaze the trees
The trees that were quickly burned
But used to serve as my security

So, thank you
For doing what I could never do
Turns out the last thing I needed
Was you

And thank you
For telling me I was not enough
Turns out your words built in me
Some self love

Well, the tears that I cried
Formed an ocean
An ocean that taught me
How to swim
Against the current of your lies
That said that I'm inadequate

And turns out when no one's there
To save you
Save you from drowning in your pain
You learn real fast that it′s up to you
To grow from every wave
