Love Is Only a Word

Look at the boy
the one with the cuts and red eyes
wishing things were how they use to be
memories are all he has
he holds on tight
trying to avoid reality

he use to have the girl
the girl he loved
she was everything
made him smile
opened up his heart
until that one day he'll never forget

he came back
to what he thought was his
but she had found someone new
she looked at him and let him go
at that moment he fell to his knees
his whole world crumbled before him

but he still holds on
praying everynight "maybe shell come back"
blaming himself for eveything
trying to hide all the suffering
he keeps his headphones on
his only escape

everyday someone asks him about the cuts
he shrugs finding some excuse
never saying whats really on his mind
when all he needs is her

his days are filled with her face
he sees her, but she turns away
he wants her, to touch her
but she only wants him to go away

He wishes she would come back
She Wishes they never met.
