Nothing ever stops all these thoughts
And the pain attached to them
Sometimes I wonder why this is happening
It’s like nothing I can do will distract me when
I think of how I shot myself in the back again
‘Cause from the infinite words I could say
I put all the pain you gave to me on display
But didn’t realize instead of setting it free
I took what I hated and made it a part of me

(It never goes away, never goes away)

And now
You’ve become a part of me
You’ll always be right here
You’ve become a part of me
You’ll always be my fear
I can’t separate
Myself from what I’ve done
Giving up a part of me
I’ve let myself become you

Hearing your name the memories come back again
I remember when it started happening
I’d see you in every thought I had and then
The thoughts slowly found words attached to them
And I knew as they escaped away
I was committing myself to them
And everyday I regret saying those things
‘Cause now I see that
I took what I hated and made it a part of me

(It never goes away, never goes away)

And now
You’ve become a part of me
You’ll always be right here
You’ve become a part of me
You’ll always be my fear
I can’t separate
Myself from what I’ve done
Giving up a part of me
I’ve let myself become you

(Never goes away, never goes away)
It never goes away, it never goes away

Get away from me
Give me my space back, you got to just (go)
Everything comes down to memories of (you)
I’ve kept it in but now I’m letting you (know)
I’ve let you go
So get away from me
Give me my space back, you got to just (go)
Everything comes down to memories of (you)
I’ve kept it in but now I’m letting you (know)
I’ve let you go

And now
You’ve become a part of me
You’ll always be right here
You’ve become a part of me
You’ll always be my fear
I can’t separate
Myself from what I’ve done
Giving up a part of me
I’ve let myself become you

I’ve let myself become you
I’ve let myself become lost
Inside these thoughts of you
Giving up a part of me
I’ve let myself become you
