that anger that i kept for you slowly slipped away

i stopped feeding it so it didn’t want to stay

it just didn’t work for me and was always in the way

that anger that i kept for you slowly slipped away

 

first i suppose the blame had to go

justification for what i do

didn’t matter what was right or wrong

the results were plain it was hurting me, not affecting you

 

so i believe everything has a reason

this one has many parts

and the only one i understand is hurt has different costs

i came to find that the price that i had paid to carry this resentment

was no longer affordable to me

so i took it from the cage in my head and set my heart free

 

i don’t need it anymore
