You'Ve Been the Best

Do you remember that week
On a Tuesday night;
You said you were leaving
And we got in a fight?

I lay on your bed
And cried on your sheets,
I tried to hide it
I didn’t want you to see

I stood in the shower 
Slumped against the wall,
Broke the skin on my knuckles
Couldn’t feel it at all

The pain was too much
And it burned in my chest,
And of all my friends, love
You’ve been the best
