• I remember when I thought I died
    Thought, in time, that I would lose my mind
    Thought everything that I had was lost
    And it would only get worse ‘til I was gone
    I thought that I needed you to survive
    Thought you would haunt me for the rest of my life
    I hoped you would be friendly and help
    But instead you ignored me, let me feel the hell
    I left and you never talked to me again
    All I ever wanted was to be your friend
    Well I’m over you now, and I stand strong
    And proud that the feelings are finally gone
    The journey was long and the bumps were rough
    But being forced to travel it made me tough
    And I thank you for all the pain you gave to me
    ‘Cause the fact that I conquered it is a feat

    Now I understand what they mean
    When they say it’s not about the end, but the journey
    And if I could go back, I wouldn’t change a thing
    ‘Cause the fact that I forgot you is something that I love about me

    I remember when I’d visit my hometown
    And hope to run into you accidentally
    However, the next time that I’m around
    I won’t even care if you pass by me
    It took me years to set myself free
    And I’m ashamed that my feelings lasted such a length
    But I forgot you, like how you forgot me
    The only difference is, what I did took strength
    When I missed you, I never felt so low
    But I never felt as proud as when I let it go
    You left my heart, and though somebody else moved in
    She at least has the courtecy to be my friend
    The journey was long and the bumps were rough
    But being forced to travel it made me tough
    And I thank you for all the pain you gave to me
    ‘Cause the fact that I conquered it is a feat

    Now I understand what they mean
    When they say it’s not about the end, but the journey
    And if I could go back, I wouldn’t change a thing
    ‘Cause the fact that I forgot you is something that I love about me

    The journey was long and the bumps were rough
    But being forced to travel it made me tough
    And I thank you for all the pain you gave to me
    ‘Cause the fact that I conquered it is a feat
    I love my heart, all the scars it hides
    All the craters that fictional comets left behind
    All the cracks from the times that it fell apart
    All of its bruises, batters, marks
    Because I see the pain and the struggles I won
    And the obstacles that I have overcome
    And although my story doesn’t end with love yet
    I still found a way to live beyond my regret
    Now I stand alone and love myself
    As I remember how I escaped hell
    I no longer feel unworthy, pathetic or meek
    Angry, depressed, tired or weak

    Now I understand what they mean
    When they say it’s not about the end, but the journey
    And if I could go back, I wouldn’t change a thing
    I would watch myself with pride as I mend the injuries
    Now I understand what they mean
    When they say it’s not about the end, but the journey
    And if I could go back, I wouldn’t change a thing
    ‘Cause the fact that I forgot you is something that I love about me

    The fact that I forgot you is something that I love about me
