Different
Torn into pieces, feeling belittled
Hearts hurtin, split down the middle
Dreams seem so real, steady wishin they weren’t
The same thing that makes me happy, can also make me hurt
I want to hold on, to keep my faith at hand
But deep down I know it’s been time to disband
Others see it and say it, I continue to disregard
I keep thinking I’ll change it, yet I end up scarred
I know we won’t end up together, never be as one
But the connections we have made aren’t so easily undone
Time with you is precious to me, I enjoy your company
And I understand it’s not only me you accompany
This is no longer a struggle for me, I’ve now accepted the fact
That I'm going to remain lower on the list, but I'm not sure I'm ok with that.
I’ll embrace our last year together as close friends, and hope the years will last
Too bad our thoughts of one another had to so deeply contrast.
