| The words keep echoing, |
| over and over in my head, |
| And I still can't believe, |
| that the last thing you did, |
| was swearing at me... |
before leaving me with nothing but tears.
|
| |
| That night, after you had left, |
| I was the only one who saw the tears falling. |
| You never knew just how much I cried that night, |
| or about how much I'd cried after every single night, |
| that you had ever sworn at me. |
| But then... I don't blame you for not knowing. |
| Nobody knew, because I'd cried alone. |
| I didn't have you to hold me as I cried... |
| alone in the darkness... |
I had nothing but tears.
|
| |
| You once said, |
| that you wanted to be with me forever |
| but now you said, |
| that you never wanted to talk to me again. |
| It broke my heart when you spoke that line, |
| and fell my soul with one harsh blow. |
| I don't know how long it will take me, |
| to fit my heart back together again, |
| and pick my soul up off the ground. |
| But I've done it before, |
| so I should be able to do it again... |
| or at least... I hope I'll be able to do it again... |
| even if this time you won't be here to help me... |
even if this time, I'll have nothing but tears.
|
| |
| But this isn't how things were supposed to be, |
| it wasn't supposed to happen like this, |
| you weren't supposed to hate me, |
| and you weren't supposed to leave me, |
it wasn't supposed to end in nothing but tears.
|
| |
| Why couldn't the world just break with my heart? |
| Then I wouldn't have to put my heart back together again. |
| Then I wouldn't have to pick my soul off of the floor. |
| And then I wouldn't have to feel all of this pain, |
| all of this hurting that won't go away. |
| The crying is supposed to make it better, isn't it? |
| "Just let it all out, that will make it all better" |
| isn't that what they say? |
| Then why am I still hurting as I cry? |
| Why won't the sobs make the pain go away? |
| Why doesn't the pain lessen with every tear that falls? |
| Why can't I do anything to make the pain go away? |
| All the crying still doesn't make the pain go away, |
| it doesn't bring you back, |
| and it doesn't heal me, |
| all it does is leave me... alone... |
with nothing... but tears.
