My heart aches as you walk near
You, who've once taken everything I held dear
You have some nerve to come to me
When you made certain to ruin who I could be
Are you here to gloat, parade your victory?
I want to go, but you won't set me free
And I'm tired, I have nothing left to give
I wish you wouldn't come back once you leave.
Looking back, I thought you might have seen the good in me
And you tried to bring it out so I could also see
But that was only a flicker, something that flared your hopes up
And I knew that, so I asked you to stop
I'm broken that time and I couldn't trust anybody
Yet you insisted that it'll not be bad as I thought it would be
And for a bit of time, it seems okay
Until I can no more keep my demons in bay
I turned out to be a monster and you saw it
I punished you for the past I was burden with
I got you confused on with the truths and the lies
Having enough, you flee and bid me goodbye
And still, I wish I hadn't let you see,
That there's still good left in me
Maybe then, you wouldn't keep your hopes up
Saving us the time and pain, if you have stopped.
I watch the pebble skips in the water
As my heart flips, flips, flips
The ghost of your touch, my knees waver
And I weep, weep, weep.
My words might be beautiful, but they are empty
Devoid of soul, devoid of feelings, a low hanging fantasy
I use it as traps, trying to catch strangers' hearts
Trying to cram those pieces into my chest, hoping mine would start
My hands are so red, I have crossed too many lines
Does my guilt absolves me? Do I still have the right to call this pain mine?
As my self-made ghosts roam around this false cemetery,
As my body sinks with the weight of the burden I chose to carry,
Can I still forgive myself before this imaginary coffin turns real?
For all the wounds I've inflicted, for all the wounds I never learned to heal.
If I’ll ever meet you again someday
I wouldn’t know what to say
Should I smile or cry
Do I need to say hey or goodbye?
I’m wondering how would you react
Would you walk away or come back?
Would you see the misery your absence brought to me?
Or would you act as nonchalant as you can be?
I don’t even know if I’m over it or not
If there’s no more feelings or there’s are a lot
What I know for certain is this pain
And fear that I might forever wait in vain
There’s too many questions, too many regrets
If you’re not meant to be mine, why can’t I forget?
I’m trying to catch up, but you’re too fast
If we meet again, this insanity might stop at last.
I hide behind these walls, I hide away my soul
Yet one look from you I fall, one look and you stole
What was never mine and has always been yours
You're good, you're good, I whisper as it gets worse
We're not meant to be, you made me happy
We're not meant to be, a footnote in your story
We're not meant to be, all I want is an apology
We're not meant to be, please tell me why you left me.
