In the beginning, you told me I was gorgeous and beautiful, 

Now, let me be mad. 

You said you wanted me, and I was wonderful.

Now, let me be mad. 

I dreamed about you, and desired your touch,

Now, let me be mad. 

I romanticized every part of you, so much. 

Now, let me be mad. 

Your words sang to my heart. 

Now, let me be mad. 

But circumstances kept us apart. 

Now, let me be mad.

With everything that's been said and done, 

Let me be mad.

With every secret that we've never told anyone,

Let me be mad. 

With every excuse you gave and every lie you told. 

Let me be mad. 

When your words felt good and the story began to unfold,

Let me be mad. 

With every time I felt used.

Let me be mad. 

With every emotion you refused. 

Let me be mad. 

When your pitiful soul dragged me down,

Let me be mad. 

And my heart began to drown, 

Let me be mad. 

Let me feel the anger inside, 

Let me hate you until the pain subsides,

Let me allow your ignorance to sink in. 

Let me ignite the rage within. 

Let me. 

I'll do it quietly, 

Respectfully,

But let me be mad.
