I wrote this just to tell you
'Cause I finally had the chance to realize
That what you put me through was everything I needed
Didn't know it in the moment
That I wanted something different
But I only saw the broken and now I see the reason
Why I spent all those nights crying
Nearly getting suicidal
Guess I'm glad that all the bad turned into good
Oh I'm thankful that I lost you
'Cause I found every part of me
All the healing it was painful
But the scars didn't cut too deep
'Cause I've finally found somebody else
And he loves the things about myself
That you never loved
I wish I could've seen how this would end
'Cause now I know how it all ends
And I'd do it all again
I know I put the blame on you
I hope you see that's half the truth
I thought you meant to hurt me, now I know you didn't mean it
So if I ever think of us
I think of when the good part was
'Cause if you never gave me up
I wouldn't have the one I love
But I spent all those nights crying
Nearly getting suicidal
Guess I'm glad that all the bad turned into good
Oh I'm thankful that I lost you
'Cause I found every part of me
All the healing it was painful
But the scars didn't cut too deep
'Cause I've finally found somebody else
And he loves the things about myself
That you never loved
I wish I could've seen how this would end
'Cause now I know how it all ends
And I'd do it all again
It might have taken therapy
But I bought my mom the house
From the heartbreak royalties
And I don't need your sympathy
'Cause I turned the tears to something
That means more to me
So all, I have to say is
That I'm thankful 'cause I lost you
And I found every part of me
All the healing it was painful
But the scars didn't cut too deep
'Cause I've finally found somebody else
And he loves the things about myself
That you never loved
I wish I could've seen how this would end
'Cause now I know how it all ends
And I'd do it all again
I could say: I'm sorry, but I'm not
I got exactly what I want
And I'm so thankful you had your fingers crossed
