never did i think

that it'd all end up okay

i prayed to feel apathy

when i saw you everyday


the panic moved in

planning to stay a while

i spent time around you in fear

i never saw a smile


changing seemed impossible

and so did finding light

but then i met him

and everything finally felt alright


he showed me what you failed to

that i am stronger than i thought

that i am not doomed

that i write my own plot


he taught me to be happy

and to find peace with myself

to forget about those who 

hurt me like yourself


and that

that was how i knew

he was always better for me

than you
