Keeping my distance from you   Has been so hard to do   And I just read your letter   Now things are for the better      We need a break   Before I break   Before I take   My life   We need our space   Before I break   Before I lose my face      And now I'm glad that I got away   Now I'm happy I didn't stay   I don't need that shit from you   I'm so angry I can't even scream   And I thrive on pain to let off some steam   I don't need that from you anymore      The lies to escape   The games that you played   This is all out of shape   And I feel so betrayed      We need a break   Before I break   Before I take   My life   We need our space   Before I break   Before I lose my face      This is me pretending I don't care   This is me pretending I'm not scared   This is me pretending   Me pretending   Me pretending that I'm there      We need a break   Before I break   Before I take   My life   We need our space   Before I break   Before I lose my face      This is me pretending life's not a waste   This is me pretending that you've been erased   This is me pretending   Me pretending   Me pretending your not the case      Deep inside I've always hated   The fake way you eradicated for us   Deep inside I've always despised   All the hate, all the lies   All the lies that took from me   All the hate that set us free   All the anger that loved to breed   All the times we disagreed      We need a break   Before I break   Before I take   My life   We need our space   Before I break   Before I lose my face      This is me pretending
