I cried because I love you
But love can’t make a way
I cried because I heard you
Breathing in the words you had to say
I cried because I’ve wanted you
But it never worked out that way
I cried a lot of tears, my hearts just full of pain.
My mirrors have barely seen any smiles of mine.
I was a fool to think that I could be happy this time.
I kept trying to just go away
But you’d pull me back in
There’s no way I’ll be the same.
Turns out you were right again.
I did get addicted
You became the only thing I could think of
No matter what was mentioned.
I spent years trying to build you up
Even at a distance
I remember the kid you were
And was hoping that youy didn’t.
I’ve given you more credit than you really deserved
Put you high upon my pedestal
Just for you to crush my nerves.
I believed every word you had to say.
But your actions spoke way louder
Even I could see through your ways.
Then I cried again,
Cause I saw right through your lies.
Spent all these years under your deception.
But I’m walking away this time.
I cried myself to sleep this morning.
Your lack of presence is tormenting.
I cried for my heart that’s been bleeding
You would clot it up so gently.
And when I cried this morning,
Through blurred vision I could finally see,
That all these things,
You’ve ever said to me,
Was nothing more than flattery.
Should I cry
Even one more time
It’ll be because I’m turning you into a distant memory.
Time will pass,
Though my heart may never heal,
At least I know I got away.
And let go of all the things that I feel.
I cried because I loved you
But love couldn’t make a way
I cried because I heard you
But knew for me, there really is no place stay.
