its so weird how one day you can be here
and the next day just comes too fast.
hard to believe there're more tears
waiting to come at last.
when i was younger
i used to believe you
and now i just have this hunger
to be closer to you.
i endured so many hits
that i should've backed down
but when i think of it
i'm stronger now that you're not around
yes, it still tears me apart
to see your face
and i'll always have this broken heart
to put me in my place
but finally i see
that this is who you are
and no matter who i try to be
i can't change your heart.
sure, i'm still hurt
and there are times i feel like death
but if you tell me i will learn
well, i've gotta believe the rest.
