Saying Goodbye To An Ex

I wish I could show you how I feel in my heart And how much inside this tears me apart I wish that I could make my heart unbreak And wish you loved me and all this a mistake I can’t make you feel something you don’t feel And it brings the question was anything real So you feel nothing and say that you tried? Smiles only visible with no feeling inside? Nothing felt when your tears have been cried? Or is it pain that you feel for me Tears shed for mere sympathy Don’t cry for me cause I will be fine All I ever wanted was your heart to be mine For some reason that doesn’t seem it can be I can’t believe that it has to do with me I tortured myself wondering what I did wrong And I realized it was nothing you just want to be gone Maybe its that you’re not ready for something like this And the only thing I’m left with is you to miss Dying to hold you or get one last kiss Destroyed that things have played out like this I don’t think I won’t be missed And at another point in your life you might be pissed That you let go of something so true And someone that completely loved you Gave you everything they were and aspired to be And you let it go for uncertainty But you’re unhappy and not in love which I understand And I know this is something that you didn’t have planned I wish I could change that somehow and fix my flipped lid And think one day you’ll realize you loved me more than you did Maybe that something that started one day out of thin space Was meant for a different time and place I’m sorry the most that I have to see you go I will always love you more than you know
