WHY

You don't know how I feel; you don't know what I've seen.  
All I know is I have a dream,  
A dream I lost you and can't bring you back.  
To your heart is where my love is at.  
So I ask myself every night and day,  
Does she love me? I don't know what to say.  
All I know is I'm hurting inside,  
Trying to win this thing called pride.  
Fighting off every aspect to make myself look shameful.  
Please come take away this hurt; take it away, it's too painful.  
So pray for me and keep my thoughts near.  
This is the end, so lend me an ear!
