Good Reasons

Yes, I've trusted people
Who betrayed me
I gave myself to friendships

That I thought were true
And time teaches everything
Sometimes down, sometimes up

Yes, life is made of moments
Pieces of events
Keep the good parts and move on
Always forward fearlessly

I learned to say no
To listen to my heart
With the past buried
I left so many people behind

This isn't bitterness
It's not anger, nor madness
It's a matter of self-love
Reciprocity and staying focused

The time has passed when
I would go anywhere
To do anything
Now I only leave my peace and quiet
If it's for good reasons

The time has passed when
I would go anywhere
To do anything
Now I only leave my peace and quiet
If it's better than being alone

The time has passed when
I would go anywhere
To do anything
Now I only leave my peace and quiet
If it's better than being alone
