Is it Worth It?

Is it worth it, all these changes that we’re going through?
This emotional roller coaster that leaves me feeling blue?
Is it worth all this pain that’s become so hard to hide?
A pain so encompassing it leaves my soul bared wide?
Is it worth it? Would you tell me, because I can’t decide?
Was I lying to myself, or was it you who lied?
Should I pack my bags and leave you
Or should I stand by your side?
Just to take another beating from your foolish pride?
Should I fight to mend a family and continue this hellish ride?
Should I lower my expectations and put my needs aside?
Is it worth the hearts that’s breaking, not knowing how things will end?
Is it worth the souls that aches wondering on whom they can depend?
Is it worth the tears that’s sure to shed when I leave this place forever?
And do I have the strength to walk away with bonds so permanently severed?

When there’s only two, leaving is easy to do
The price is minimal to pay
When the costs get this large and the benefits as small
Its much cheaper to leave than to stay.

Still, I know in my heart there’s no other way out
Cause’ I’m tired of the same hateful game
If it’s worth it to leave, and then I do leave
Will the love in my heart stay the same?

Is it Worth It?
