The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want, drink what you don't like, and do what you'd rather not. - Mark Twain

Was I not good enough for you?
Is that the reason why we’re through?
I put my heart and soul into loving you
But I was never enough to feed your desire
I tried to be perfect
I tried to put myself above the rest
You were my world
My light in the storm
My love, my life

I was blinded by my love, but now I see
You were never what was good for me
I spent years chasing a love that was never mine
But now I’m ready to move on
And won’t be standing here
Just waiting for you to come back home to me
