This came to me with pure alcohol in my veins
It blurs my vision but clears my soul
Funny how hazy eyes can see your game
Only friends and memories can fill the hole

That you left behind with one aim
To haunt me every night
I'm thinking of you less
As I'm giving up the fight

You were always my northern star
Showing me the safe way home
But now I don't know who you are
Maybe I am better off on my own

Long nights I spent
Not knowing where hours went, with you
Didnt want to let you out of view
They say, everyone has their flaws
But I never laid eyes on yours

This is my release, I just have to let you go
It's a shame to end like this, But you arent the girl I used to know

And no matter what is said and done
The love was always real
Maybe that's what made you turn and run
I'm sorry I never asked how you feel

It was always my number one task
To keep this clumsy heart in its cage
And theres so many questions left to ask
I just can't help but feel betrayed

You were always my northern star
Showing me the safe way home
But now I don't know who you are
Maybe I am better off on my own

Long nights I spent
Not knowing where hours went, with you
Didnt want to let you out of view
They say, everyone has their flaws
But I never laid eyes on yours

This is my release, I just have to let you go
It's a shame to end like this, But you arent the girl I used to know

This is my release, I just have to let you go
It's a shame to end like this, But you arent the girl I used to know

I have to let you go
You aren't the girl I used to know

Letting go won't be so easy, in the morning
When reality comes crashing down
But a sober heart will do some self exploring
You were all that kept me in this town

You were always my northern star
Showing me the safe way home
But now I don't know who you are
Maybe I am better off on my own

Long nights I spent
Not knowing where hours went, with you
Didnt want to let you out of view
They say, everyone has their flaws
But I never laid eyes on yours
I wrote this a while back at a friends. She just found it and sent it to me, I actually got really excited because without knowing its mine, I immediately loved it, it was then I found out I wrote it myself when we used to hang out. I hope you enjoy this :D
