Songs Are Priceless - The Best Of Me Survived Lyrics

I let the connection between us define me
In a very scary and unhealthy way
I lost too much of my identity
Which was an unconscious choice I made

All that might have been fine if we survived
But it was trouble whenever we stopped
I held the bonds between us way too tight
And my bond to myself got lost

There was lots of drama in our goodbye
I was losing more than just you and me
All I kept asking myself was why
And what the purpose was for this happening
I was worried that some of me was gone
When the love between us died
But I've found as time has moved on
That the best of me survived

The parts of me that were much too fragile
Died a painful death with the loss of us
The parts of me that were vengeful
Have now vanished like blowing dust

The parts of me that were way too insecure
Felt better staying back with who we were
But the parts of me that are resilient and strong
Are now the foundation of me forever

There was lots of drama in our goodbye
I was losing more than just you and me
All I kept asking myself was why
And what the purpose was for this happening
I was worried that some of me was gone
When the love between us died
But I've found as time has moved on
That the best of me survived

There was a lesson for me in all the pain
A lesson that I'll carry for my whole life
If I pay attention to who I need to be
The best of me will always survive

There was lots of drama in our goodbye
I was losing more than just you and me
All I kept asking myself was why
And what the purpose was for this happening
I was worried that some of me was gone
When the love between us died
But I've found as time has moved on
That the best of me survived
