Get Over You by CarterTachikawa

This house just feels so empty
But these walls have become my friends
I try not to tell them the truth
Still it comes back to haunt me again

I said I’d never live it down
If I had to waste another moment on you
And I swore to live with lies
If it meant forgetting the truth

Chorus:

So tell me what’s it going to take
To get you out of my mind?
To keep you out of my life?
To pick myself up and get over you?
How much more will break
If I hold on too long?
Or if I just let go now?
As I’m trying to get over you

You turned me inside out
Poured your poison in my heart
Held me together too tight
And then left me to fall apart

I’m not sure what I was thinking
Or why I kept begging for more
I should have seen the sun come out
The day I let you out that door

(Chorus)

Bridge:
What else could you break?
What more can my heart take?
What do I need to do to get over you?
How far will I have to run?
To make sure that we’re done?
What do I need to do to get over you?

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

I got to pick myself up and get over you (x2)
