My Old Self Back


"My Old Self Back" speaks of the feelings I dealt with during a rough separation. I found myself doing things that I used to not do, and I felt like a different person. Most of these things I hated, so it was hard to love myself. This was a plea that I might find some of the positive qualities that went into remission after this separation.

Verse 1
I know I’m not the only one to go through this,
But that doesn’t mean that it still doesn’t hurt.
We were together for two years, and then you took it all away.
So now months have passed by, and I’m forced to go while my heart says stay.

Chorus
You took a piece of me when you left,
I’m not even sure what that piece was.
I just know that I am not the same as I once was.
And if I’m forced to move on without you,
I’d at least like to have my old self back.

Verse 2
Sure I’ve been through this many times before,
But it’s never been quite like this.
I’m trying to let go and be restored, I don’t have the answers
To the questions flooding my mind!
But even in the middle of all my pain
I trust it will just take time.
