Glass Half Empty

What I see behind these

Tears inside my eyes

Love finds me in hiding

I can’t escape if I tried

From the end to see then

The way you treated me

Your  friends say you need him

To be the way you use to be

 
I’m looking from a glass half empty

How can we look at things better

With a glass half empty

When will we solve our problems just to be together

If a glass is half empty

What lies in time withholds our future forever

As this glass is half empty

 
As our love has grown

To see mistakes you’ve made

I’ve tried and tried

To accept every time you apologize

But I know things won’t change

They’ll just remain the same

 

If I can find myself

Seeking my identity

Without love, living without trust

The pain is no friend to me
