Distant
Boy, I'm hurting because thinking of the old us makes me sore.
I was looking forward to a future with you,
But I really just don't know anymore.
You were the one who made me love you!
How could you let me go?
I was so mad then, I didn't want to ask why,
But now I truly want to know!
How could you love me, then leave me?
How could you stand by when others would deceive me?
How was I always on your mind, but only when I was there?
Why is it when I left here you didn't care?
How can we possibly be friends? Now we are so distant.
I thought you would be there til the end.
You were only there for an instant.
