You cushion every single word
With pity in your eyes
You wait for me to break right down
I smile to your surprise

Then we both laugh with relief
"We're better as friends!" I say
And as the tears start rolling down
I turn and walk away

Tighten the rope you placed around my neck
Push me aside..... make me forget
Demolish what's left of the heart you broke...
Laugh to yourself as you watch me choke

Inside me, there's a song
Yet I cannot find the words
It's the story of my heart...
The saddest song you've ever heard

Tell me, please... Just look into my tear-filled eyes and answer the one simple question that has been gnawing at my heart since the day you left...

What happened to forever?

"I'm happy for you," I smile
As I look him in the eye...
But when I turn around
The tears stream down
For I know it's just a lie...

If I could hate him I would... I promise. The only problem is, that there's this part of me that still sees the guy that I once knew... The guy that he pretended to be.

I'll wave at him and walk right by
Smiling with tears in my eye
I'll try my hardest to pretend
That to me he's "just a friend"
For if I hide it, he won't know
That I still haven't let him go

He makes me smile almost as easily as he makes me cry♥

I wait for you to call me...but you don't.
I wait for this heart to heal...but it won't.
I wait for these tears to leave...but they fall still.
I wait for you to notice me...but you never will.

And I lie to the world by saying I am over you... Because maybe if I pretend long enough... I'll start to believe it, too.
