I walk on by my life
i hold my head up high
ignore the stares and fight the tears
i don't dare make eye contact, because then everyone will know.
I loved, i lost, she died, i cried.
My eyes betray my heart,
steal a glance at the people passing by
my heart rushes into my throat.
i know how wrong my thoughts are
I'd hand my pain to the nearest family
take the life of a stranger
just to have her back
They don't know how lucky they are
The little girl holding her hand doesn't realize one day she'll be gone.
she doesn't realize one day she'll look back and cry.
i want to tell her to treasure the times.
