So I walked away this time
Just like last time
Which was like the time before
I walked away from your eyes
I think that they were holding me hostage
Behind the greed that you wanted all along
They told me to be strong
Hold my head up
Stand up to you
I wanted so much more than you ever had to offer
You wanted so much more than I ever wanted to give
So this time I just walked away...

Love,
Ladycat

...and sometimes, we have to,
for our own sanity...
