 A New Woman

I don't know about you Only I never leave my heart open
It ain't a door It ain't a book 
It ain't a program I can't even trust software 
So why am I gonna open up Why am I gonna let you get in further 
My heart isn't a ground to be stamped upon 
I am not a fool to be walked all over 
Nor is my soul a floor to be stepped on My mind ain't a crib to abuse 
You acted like a shadow and you left me in darkness 
I only let you in as far as I did because I loved you 
I respected you and I trusted you I didn't know you didn't feel the same 
I didn't know your deep thoughts weren't fixated on me 
I didn't know you'd ghost me I wish I could still hold you and sniff you 
I wish I was still the one and we talk all night long
It took everything out of me when I'm, not the one making you laugh 
it took it all out of me To block your path from contact.
Did it ever occur to  you that I can't ever say anything to you 
Without risking a ghosting after hope goes up It takes everything out of me 
It takes everything out of me not to miss you I cry at the fact
That we are never ever ever getting back together 
You mean the world to me and I grieve the loss of what was ours 
Or was this just an illusion in my head and I was the only one that cared 
If so what a fool I was oh baby I believed every word even though 
I find it so hard to trust and I wish things didn't end like this stop torturing me 
Your friends broke the barriers and are all over the place when you left me in darkness 
You didn't even offer your hand to take me away with you
