Thank You For Waking Me

I just exhaled
First time since I met you
I was derailed
Turned into a human bruise
But now I'm feeling the blood rush back to my veins
And my head is fending off the pain
Because for every breath that I wasted on a four lettered name
This sweet nectar like perspective is my gain
Thank you for breaking my heart my dear
It's made me strong enough to eradicate these fears
finally
Thank you for making me take the leap off the platform
Where I lingered so long
Cyclically denying
Who I am, where I'll go, what I want, and what I need
Oh I am so much more than just a princess in your story
Thank you for waking me
I took so many measures
Avoiding foregone conclusions
It was my guilty pleasure
Along comfortable delusions
But now the truth is unveiling
And I'm in the quick sand of my lies
A fool with arms out flailing
Cuz for every step that I wasted
Now I must go back, retrace my tracks
Til I'm far enough away
Thank you for breaking my heart my dear
It's made me strong enough to eradicate these fears
finally
Thank you for making me take the leap off the platform
Where I lingered so long
Cyclically denying
Who I am, where I'll go, what I want, and what I need
Oh I am so much more than just a princess in your story
Thank you for waking me
It's all so embarrassing
But while I'm here declaring things
Isn't it bullshit how you used my feelings
With the rest your face now blending
Another unhappy ending
Wait, I'll admit you were different
You helped me end the curse that had me crying
I'm in the ashes now, but soon I'll be flying
Thank you for breaking my heart my dear
It's made me strong enough to eradicate these fears
finally
Thank you for making me take the leap off the platform
Where I lingered so long
Cyclically denying
Who I am, where I'll go, what I want, and what I need
Oh I am so much more than just a princess in your story
Ohhhhhhh
I am so much more than just a princess in your story
Thank you for waking me
Thank you for waking me
Thank you for waking me
