I cannot believe you hurt me this way
I relive that same pain every single day
I really believed that I would someday be your wife
And now I just relive the empty fact that you are no longer in my life
Daily and nightly many tears flood from my eyes
I feel as though I am drowning in your giant sea of lies
I cannot believe that none of it was real
For if I did, just for one moment, I know with no hesitation that this broken heart has no chance to ever heal
You tell me to believe, you tell me to hope
But when I look around, all I see is an empty noose at the end of a dangling rope
Once upon a time, I thought all my wishes were finally coming true
Yet here I am, lost, blindsided completely out of the blue
I knew your heart. I knew your soul
Or so I once believed, before you tore this gaping heart hole
I want to forgive. I want to not hate
But sometimes I contemplate if it’s just too damn late
I once called you "prince", you once called me "angel"
Yet here I am, desperate to be saved, in a forever long personal hell
I re-live that yesterday, over and over, it continues to hover
But you had already moved on, moved out, and belong to another
I do not regret you; I know I never ever will
But I cannot seem to swallow this jagged little pill
My heart is in pieces, never to heal to its former self
And if I can find a way to ever glue it back together, it will be sitting on a high dusty shelf
I once thought knew you, I was so indescribably sure
Yet here I am, laying wide awake again...without the hope of a cure
The first time I met you, I could not possibly look away
I would’ve done anything for you, for us, but you decided to stray
I still cannot believe that you aren’t here right next to me
All of the pain that I feel, I wish you could just feel and see
I used to be filled with unbridled pride over 'us'
And now what I feel compares to being hit by a bus
Deep down I know the "what, when, how, and why's" probably don't matter
Yet I cannot evade the festering thoughts of the latter
You know me better than anyone else ever could
I let you in freely, no hesitation, when I probably never should
I hope you’re happy, I hope you are well
As I still sit here, in silence, with little resemblance of my former shell
I still reach for you, at night, to feel you next to me
And then I wake up, and realize it was all just a dream
I try to have strength, I try to stand tall
But I’ve been pushed down so far, further than I realized I could ever possibly fall
All those songs have new meaning, they all have new light
I listen to them all, back to back, every single night
I will love you forever, this I know without doubt
I just hope someday I can understand how your decision ever came about
