For all of those times that your hand knocked me down
And all of the times you tried to break my smile
I just wanted your love but nowhere to be found
This is my recovery
And you've got nothin over me
But I love you
Growin up I never dreamed I'd have a life of pain
And my heart drops a million feet every time they say your name
And now all I can think is how things would've been
If you would've loved me and accept me
The way it should've been
I wish it wasn't like this
I with it didn't feel like this
I wish you didn't treat me like this
I wish I didn't have to wish
I wish it was more like this
I wish you could see it like this
I wish you would've loved me like this
I wish I didn't have to wish
Don't wanna say I don't love you
My life is just better without you
It's been a while since I've been here
Tried lovin you but nothin's changed
Said you wanted to It's been the same
Did you really think I'd never grow
Broke free now I'm movin on
Never thought I'd let it go
Gave me life then took my soul
Did you really think I'd never grow
Broke free now I'm moving on
Came back hoping you would know
How you hurt me hold me close
Shut my heart out treated me cold
Nothin I could do to gain your love
I just wanted love what's required of you
Suffered long enough
Now I'm bold enough to
Pack my bags and leave
Nothin holdin me
Now I've found my peace
On the road to recovery
I wish it wasn't like this
I with it didn't feel like this
I wish you didn't treat me like this
I wish I didn't have to wish
I wish it was more like this
I wish you could see it like this
I wish you would've loved me like this
I wish I didn't have to wish
I wish I didn't have to wish
I wish I didn't have to wish
No oh oh oh oh
