Why?

Why are you so hard to forget?
Time won't heal me, I bet.
Why does everything remind me of you?
When all your words weren't true.

Why do I think of you at night?
Long ago you should have taken flight.
Why is it that I still hold on to you?
I really think I'm a fool.

Why do you appear in front of me?
I wish I'd go blind, so I wouldn't see.
Why do I hide in your shadows?
And my love still grows and grows.

Why do I cry?
And my tears don't seem to dry.
Why do I still feel hurt?
When all you've been is a jerk.

Why do I still hang on?
I suppose I love you a ton.
Why don't you even care?
And pretend that I'm not there.

Why do I think I hate you?
When my love for you is true.
Why do I want to stop?
'Cause I don't want another teardrop.
