Light Years Away

A girl and a boy were quite close for a long period of time, and in the girls eyes he messed everything up. years later the girl realises its not worth hating. you live and learn. she's become the bigger person and become a better person from learning from her mistakes.

It’s almost like you had it planned Its like you smiled and shook my hand and said hey I’m about to screw you Over big time

What was I supposed to do I was stuck in between you and a hard place We wont talk about the hard place

[He fucked her over. She had nothing else to do but leave him. She feels as if this was his plan all along.]

But I don’t blame you anymore That’s too much pain to store It left me half dead inside my head And boy looking back I see I’m not the girl I used to be when I lost my mind It saved my life.

[She's not the person that she used to be. Hating and blaming him is more pain than what it's worth. "When I lost my mind" - Meaning when she 'lost her mind' and left him. In the end, it saved her life because she's so much of a better person.]

Its how you wanted it to be Its like you played a joke on me and I lost a friend in the end and I think that I cried for days but now it seems light years away and im never going back to who I was

[He could have prevented it from happening. From hurting her, but he didn't. He lost not only a love, but a great friendship. 'I think I cried for days' - She can't even remember, because she's moved on to a whole nother life and is a different person. Grown up. She can't go back to being young and naive.]

Cause I don’t blame you anymore Cause its too much pain to store Cause it left me half dead Inside my head And boy looking back I see I’m not the girl I used to be when I lost my mind It saved my life

I think I cried for days but now that seems like light years away and I’m never going back to who I was

I don’t blame you anymore that’s too much pain to store It left me half dead inside my head And boy looking back I see I’m not the girl I used to be when I lost my mind It saved my life

That life seems like light years away. Light years away.

That life seems like light years away. Light years away.

Girl and guy really had something, whether it friendship or relationship. Things got fucked up, she blamed him and walked away from him. Years later she looks back and she's forgiven him after all the pain- the "hard place" is an indication of pre-existing personal pain- but she's grown from the painful experience and it "saved my life".

beccums....=( agree...

I completely agree with beccums. Story of my life at one point. Moving on, growing and forgiving. Favorite lyrics: "I think I cried for days but now that seems like light years away, and I’m never going back to who I was, that life seems like light years away". Nice song!

to me this song is about sex...he left her after it

this song is beautiful to me it's about the first time you get your heartbroken "it saved my life" - says how your stronger and you know what not to do the second time around i love it

pretty straight forward guy and girl, break up, she blames him. but looking back she realises it wasnt worth it, that hating him isnt worth her time.
