23:34 - Doppelganger
I've been looking for people who look like you.
You'll never be here, so they'll have to do.
I hate that you smile in a similar way,
Yet I need the resemblance, and can't look away.
I've been loving the people who look like you.
And it hurts that it's not, but what else can I do?
You made me so happy, but left me in tears,
I'm lonelier now than I have been in years.
I'm losing the people who look like you,
Please don't say that I'm losing you too.
