 -  -  -
I’ve  never been  the kind to hold  back,
Though  I’ve never  felt  the burden  before,
And  all these years  I begged for vengeance,
 Was only  left  with wanting  more,
 But I  can’t  be whole,
 'til  I let all this anger go,
 The  silent strain I’ve  carried long enough.
 And I  can’t be with you,
 I don’t even want  to,
 I just wish  your ghosts were gone,
 Cause I’m  ready to love,
 I’ve been guarded  long  enough.
 -  -  -
It’s  taken a lot to  forgive  you,
Oh  it’s taken  me so long,
I  tried in vain  to forget  you,
 Oh I tried  everything,
 But I  won’t  be free,
 'til  I’ve made peace with never knowing,
 What  went wrong and was  the fault in me.
 And I  can’t be with you,
 I don’t even want  to,
 I just wish  your ghosts were gone,
 Cause I’m  ready to love,
 I’ve been guarded  long  enough.
 -  -  -
 I’ve been guarded  long  enough,
 I’ve been guarded  long  enough,
 I’ve been guarded  long  enough  to know,
 I’m ready,  I’m ready,
 I’m ready,  I’m ready,
 I’m ready,  I’m ready,
 I’m ready,  I’m ready  now.
