Now That I'm Free...

I stopped sleeping so well the night you threw me away

Me and Jameson cuddled till night turned to day

As our little love nest transformed into a thorny thicket

If I said it was easy, you'd best believe I was lying

Professing love for my life, you'd best believe I was dying

Sucking every last drop out of one drink ticket

And it's so easy to say that I'm finally one with myself

And that the forced isolation was a milestone to my precious health

You kept the necklace I gave you, I kept the trampoline

Wasn't surprised when you left me for a pyramid scheme

Took the appropriate actions, but it's never enough

Now that I'm free of the wrath of your love

I wrote so many songs trying to get over you

Till it started to seem like the wrong thing to do

As I looked in the mirror and saw your face in my reflection

And no friend that I had could ever stop the obsession

Any cordial little push in a better direction

So you ask how things are, I can't answer its loaded question

And it's so easy to say that the heavens have begun to awaken

And that the almighty light replaced the piece of my heart that was taken

But the truth is revealed in the tears in my eyes

The lows was always outnumber the few and far between highs

Still desperately searching for diamonds in the rough

And now that I'm free of the wrath of your love

They say time heals all wounds, but sometimes time wounds the heals

If you've ever been addicted, then you know how it feels

Every lover since you has been methadone to the actual habit

And I've lived long enough to know that a good thing was tried

You don't truly know the good thing till the good thing has died

Then you're clawing at thin air, in a last ditch attempt to grab it

And there's an unknown destination I'm trying to get there

As the atomic time bomb in my throat says a quarter to nowhere

And it'll all simmer down like the psychiatrist said

Double the prescription and send me to bed

But the pain won't subside, I need more of that stuff

And now that I'm free of the wrath of your love

Now that I'm free of the wrath of your love

Now that I'm free of the wrath of your love
