Inside

Inside

Bottled up inside
Are the words i never said, The feelings that I hide,
The lines you never read.
You can see it in my eyes, Read it on my face 
trapped inside are lies of the past I can't replace.
With memories that linger, won't seem to go away.
Why can't i be happier?
Today's a brand new day.
Yesterdays are over, even though the hurting is not.
Nothing lasts forever, I must cherish what I've got.
Don't take my love for granted, for soon it will be gone-
of the love you thought you'd won.
The hurt I'm feeling now won't disappear pear overnight,
But someway somehow, everything will turn out all right,
No more wishing for the past, it wasn't meant to be.
It didn't seem to last, so I have to set him free.
