I put on a happy face, laughed with people and friends
I acted as if I didn't care, not minding the hurt that prevails
I looked at my phone, arguing with myself whether to call or to stall
My ego triumphs, leaving me shattered and lonely.
I tried starting all over again with someone who cares
I thought I could nurse my brokenness with his presence
I did what I thought would make me forget
But all I could think of is you.
I struggled with my love and my pride
At the end my arrogance took control, defeating all that is left in me.
I'm no better now, nor will I be alive again without you
I just feel sorry that I didn't fight for my right to love you
I will try to live with this pain and forget you in time, i pray.
I'm a great pretender, nobody knows my disguise
But if I have to go on like this, i will
Setting you free is all that my heart can offer.
