I WISH
I SEE YOU
AND IT TAKES EVERYTHING IN ME
NOT TO CRY.
IF SOMEONE MENTIONS YOUR NAME
IT'S ALL THE POWER I CONTAIN
NOT TO DOUBLE OVER WITH INNER PAIN.
THE ONE THING I'VE EVER WANTED
WAS GIVEN TO ME
AND THEN SNATCHED AWAY.
I CAN'T GO INTO TOWN
AND HOLD MY HEAD HIGH.
YOU WERE MY EVERYTHING
AND YOU LEFT ME EMPTY AND BROKEN;
WITH NO REMEDY.
I PUT ON A FRONT YET
I STILL HAVE NOT FOOLED MYSELF.
YOUR WORDS GAVE ME HOPE
BUT THE MONMENT YOU SAID THEM,
WE BOTH KNEW THEY WERE FALSE.
I WISH I KNEW AWAY
TO TURN OFF MY HEART
THEN MAYBE I COULD SLEEP AT NIGHT.
I NEVER LOVED ANYONE, LIKE I DID YOU.
AND IF I COULD CHANGE THE PAST...
I WOULDN'T HAVE EVER LOVED YOU!
YOU GAVE ME A REASON TO LIVE,
AND TO BE HAPPY.
HELL...I THOUGHT YOU FELT THE SAME.
IF I COULD IMPROVE THE WAY I LOOKED,
BELIEVE ME I WOULD.
YOU SEEMED DO DIFFERENT;
YOU SEEMED SO TRUE.
WHY IN THE WORLD, DO I STILL
WORRY ABOUT YOU?
I WANTED TO BE YOUR EVERYTHING;
I TREATED YOU LIKE ROYALTY.
GUESS YOU NEVER CARED...
WHAT I THOUGHT OF YOU.
I KNEW THINGS WOULD BE HARD,
IF WE WERE TO END.
BUT I NEVER DREAMED
IT'D BE TOUGHER THAN DEATH!
THE ONLY PERSON ON EARTH
I LIVED FOR WAS YOU.
WHY THE HELL DID YOU
SO WILLINGLY LEAD ME ON?
MAYBE SOME DAY
I'LL BE ABLE TO RIDE BY YOUR HOUSE
AND NOT BE BLINDED;
FROM TEARS IN MY EYES.
I WISH YOU ONLY KNEW,
THE MENTAL BATTLES I'M GOING THROUGH!
AND IT TAKES EVERYTHING IN ME
NOT TO CRY.
IF SOMEONE MENTIONS YOUR NAME
IT'S ALL THE POWER I CONTAIN
NOT TO DOUBLE OVER WITH INNER PAIN.
THE ONE THING I'VE EVER WANTED
WAS GIVEN TO ME
AND THEN SNATCHED AWAY.
I CAN'T GO INTO TOWN
AND HOLD MY HEAD HIGH.
YOU WERE MY EVERYTHING
AND YOU LEFT ME EMPTY AND BROKEN;
WITH NO REMEDY.
