Faces fade
As I turn to the blade
Tear drops fall like rain
I hope you know the pain
I am going through
Don’t act as if you knew
Cause you don’t
I wouldn’t ask for you to love me ‘cause I know you wont
Pretty smile hides the shame
‘cause she knows she’s to blame
No one will know but her
That you were gone and seen as a blur
To her you were everything
But to you she was nothing
Why is this?
How could she have been in such bliss?
And yet they kissed
Too bad she can only wish
Away the pain
And he has only lived in vane
Until the day they meet again
They will try to be just friends
