I never knew I could hurt like this
And everyday life goes on like
"I wish I could talk to you for awhile"
"I wish I could try not to cry"
As time goes by.
No I can't forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way
The story goes.
No I can't forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrow
When I had you there
But then I let you go
I pretended to feel similarly
And led you to believe I was OK
to just walk away from the thing
That's unyielding and sacred to me
Well I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it
And I'm going to extremes to prove
I'm fine without you
But in reality I'm slowly loosing my mind
Underneath the smile gradually I'm dying
Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly
Cause I don't want to reveal that fact that I'm suffering
And turn down all the lights and then break down and cry
