Drained of emotion

Tears run dry

I would give anything

Just to feel all right

Down on my knees

Praying for help

But sometimes you just gotta help yourself

I tried so hard to be someone you would love

Seems I would never try hard enough

Though I love you, got to give you up

I'm going back to who I was

And I do believe that change is gonna do me good

Let's take this moment to say goodbye

Look at each other right straight in the eye

Don't look back, baby, because I'll be gone

I've got my own life to carry on

I tried so hard to be someone you would love

Seems I would never try hard enough

Though I love you, got to give you up

I'm going back to who I was

And I do believe that change is gonna do me good

I do believe

Change, change is gonna do me good

Change, change is gonna do me good

Drained of emotion

Tears run dry

I would give anything
