                                        How
				   Many times
				 Will we point
			        At each other and 
			   Hope that the truth will
			 Never be found? Are we that
		      Childish? Like arguing siblings, we
		    Lie and hope that the other has to go
			      Through the trouble.
			     Hey, if you knew how
			      Much it really hurt, 
			      Would you continue
			      To point your finger?
			     Hey, if you knew how
			      Much it really hurt,
			      Would you continue
			      To say “I love you?” 
			      So now that we stand
			      On different sides of
			      The arrows, will you
			     Finally open your eyes?
			      Sweetie, I’ll love you
			     Forever, but with this
			      Arrow constantly on
			      Me, I can’t continue 
			       Living on like this.
                             I have already said my 
                             Peace, so if you have
                             Anymore arguments
 		   To blame on me, say them now before
		     I turn my back for this final time.
			I wonder, when I do turn my 
			 Back, will you continue to
			      Point the blame on 
				The one who is
				  Next? Smile,
				    And walk
				       away.
