Now that you're gone
You no longer drag from behind
You're in the arms of a stranger
So many thoughts fill up my mind
Now I can live for myself
It's easier to breathe
It's what I've been waiting for
I hoped you'd finally leave

I hoped you'd finally leave
Without you in my life
Reason comes left and right
I feel like I'm free
This is the best thing that ever happened to me
Girl, it's hard to see you go this time
But I know it's right
It's not worth the fight that's your life
You were always the anchor

I'm glad you don't want me
You're better off at sea
My last breath is mine
You don't need me to know what's right
You don't need me to know what's right!
You finally moved on
You realized we had almost nothing
(Almost nothing)
And what we had was a lie
*With chant* we were sinking

Without you in my life
Reason comes left and right
I feel like I'm free
This is the best thing that's ever happened to me
Girl, it's hard to see you go this time
But I know it's right
It's not worth the fight that's your life

I was ready to give up
Afraid this would mess everything up
I was ready to give up
Afraid this would mess everything up
I'm still finding my place in this world
This world full of opportunity
It's hard to think that I'm finally free

But what path will I choose
I don't want to lose
Faith in a healthy life
Which way is right?
All that is left
Is my desire to fight
For you

I've got to push it away!
I've got... To... Push it away!
Without you in my life
Reason comes left and right
I feel like I'm free
This is the best thing that's ever happened to me
Without you in my life
Reason comes left and right
I feel like I'm free
This is the best thing that's ever happened to me

Now that you're out of the way
I won't miss my opportunity
My life in your shadow
Is fading away
(Is fading away)
I swore I wouldn't try
To keep you here with me
Where is the future I wanted
Where lives break free of your chains?

You've got your eyes set on the best
But it means nothing to me
You better hope that you're ready
For the burden my life will be
