Over You.

okay i think i'm sick. i'm chilled and have goosebumps all over me even though it's not particularly cold. my hands and feet are frozen. i can't smell a thing and rahhhh okay i shall not whine anymore. it is unbecoming.

on a much better note, childish adults aside, i've got a lot more figured out and i'm finally happier. it's sad how it's come to be like that in my head, how people cease to exist as the people that they are but become mere concepts.
ie. "Jessica Alba" screams hot babe, nothing else.
similarly, person-in-my-head screams annoying person, nothing else anymore.

but that's the way the applecart falls, i suppose. i don't hate Person, i don't like Person, i feel nothing towards Person except when i get lost in reminiscing, when i feel the twinges of hurt. reminiscing. an activity which i'd like to stop for good, now. what good is it, to me now?



Now that it's all said and done,
I can't believe you were the one
To build me up and tear me down,
Like an old abandoned house.
What you said when you left -
Just left me cold and out of breath.
I fell too far, was in way too deep.
Guess I let you get the best of me.
Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.
You took a hammer to these walls,
Dragged the memories down the hall,
Packed your bags and walked away.
There was nothing I could say.
And when you slammed the front door shut,
A lot of others opened up,
So did my eyes so I could see
That you never were the best for me.
Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
Well I'm putting my heart back together,
'Cause I got over you.
Over You
