Tell me, please...

I can't fight back these tears anymore
I love you so much...
I wish you would tell me what was wrong
Maybe, deep down, I already know?

Was it those words I've longed to say?
The words you never wanted from me
Everyone else gets to toss them around
For once, I wanted to mean them

I want you to be happy
With or without me?
You can't fault me for trying
After all, I'm only human

Would you be able to do it differently?
If you found the meaning of life
Would you be able to walk away so easily?
I've tried; it hurts too much

Was it my personality?
Traits you could never comprehend?
I tried to open up to you,
I wanted you to understand why...

I trusted you with my mind and heart
But you snarled and threw them away
Did you want me to lie to you?
Should I have been like everyone else?

Will that really make you happy?
I hope not... You deserve better than that

Please help me stop this pain
You're the only one that can
I don't need you to love me
I just need you in my life
