Take a look at the picture of my life
I never would've thought that it ever would've looked like this
And I've been searching on and on and on and on and on for something
Something that doesn't exist
Well I guess it's time to let it go and examine my soul
For a purpose I can pursue despite the burden of you
I remember the days before I met you
Ignorant bliss ruled my every thought
And now I'm feeling not enough and unfulfilled and never satisfied
With what I've got
But I guess it's time to move along put my feelings to song
And become the person I never thought I'd meet
Cause I'm an open book where the pages are all torn
A favorite record scratched, a sweater over-worn
All the things you took from me
Won't be missed another day when I finally set me free
Do you recognize what you see in the mirror
Cause honey I sure don't
And you've been asking more and more and more of me to lend
Well baby I just won't
Cause you been taking everything you can from me
And I'm not gonna give up control of my life anymore
Cause I'm an open book where the pages are all torn
A favorite record scratched, a sweater over-worn
All the things you took from me
Won't be missed another day when I finally set me free
And now I'm making waves
Don't dare and change cause I'm not gonna either
Turning memories to shame
Before my eyes as they wither
Like an open book where the pages are all torn
A favorite record scratched, a sweater over-worn
All the things you took from me
Won't be missed another day, hey
I'm an open book where the pages are all torn
A favorite record scratched, a sweater over-worn
All the things you took from me
Won't be missed another day when I finally set me free
