"Untie The Knot" lyrics

I thought leaving
Would be the hard part
But it's picking up the pieces that's been putting me through hell
I had my reasons
But where do I start?
When every one of them feels selfish but I gotta help myself

I swear it's harder to see
What we don't wanna believe
Knew we were in it but not how deep

It didn't look so bad
'Til I took two steps back
I guess I never knew
How much of me was you
Thought all the hurt would pass
But it don't work like that
I didn't notice how tight it got
'Til I had to untie the knot

Sort through the wreckage
Six years of "what is mine is yours" turns into "take what you can get"
And somehow I thought
There'd be a lesson
But all I've learned is it's not worth it
To give your all to someone else

I swear it's harder to see
What we don't wanna believe
Knew we were in it but not how deep

It didn't look so bad
'Til I took two steps back
I guess I never knew
How much of me was you
Thought all the hurt would pass
But it don't work like that
I didn't notice how tight it got
'Til I had to untie the knot

'Til I had to untie the knot
'Til I had to untie the knot

It didn't look so bad
'Til I took two steps back
I guess I never knew
How much of me was you
Thought all the hurt would pass
But it don't work like that
I didn't notice how tight it got
'Til I had to untie the knot

'Til I had to untie the knot
