You say i'm a coward for giving up on love... I say you're a fool for giving in to it...

I won't break and i won't tremble,
Atleast not when you're around.
I won't fall to my knees and cry,
With you there to pick me up off the ground.

If i told you the truth, would you leave me alone? Or keep trying to help, and push me along? There's a reason all these things are left unspoken. So don't try to fix me... Cuz i'm not broken...

I'll carve your name across my arm,
To leave a scar for all to see.
I'll slit my wrist for you, instead of laugh for him,
Because you mean more than life to me.

My broken heart is bleeding,
And I fear I can't replace,
The love i feel and see, each time I look and see your face.

And while i'm listening to your soothing words,
It's like you've taken a knife to me.
Because the only thing i can remember
Is the love he didn't have for me.

I'll love you now but not forever.
Nothing's gonna make it better.
These thoughts keep racing through my head,
And all the things I should have said.
They say all good things must have an end,
I just hope this doesn't end too soon..

And sometimes when I dream at night,
I tell you all the things I need to say..
But even then it's always when
You're turned the other way..

And I won't say forever not ever again,
Because i'm just not quite that tough..
And the way 'forever' ended last time,
I've come to believe, that forever doesn't last long enough...

And when a new love blooms, then fades away... I hope your heart re-lives how mine died that day.
