Doesn't it hurt you,
The way this hurts me?,
Why do you pretend,
That you don't feel a thing?

Why do you hurt me,
With the things that you say?,
Haven't you seen enough of my tears?,
Haven't you seen my light fade away?

What made me happy once,
Was laughing and sharing with you,
But now I wonder what is happening,
Why is it that you hurt me like you do?

Although I plaster a smile on my face,
Although I pretend to be very strong,
Within I'm slowly breaking into pieces,
Until the friendship I feel for you is gone.

I want to have you back,
I admit I have made mistakes,
But I've paid for them enough,
Please, just take this pain away.

I am not strong at all,
I am so very weak,
And your eyes may not notice,
That I'm breaking in within.

Don't hurt me so deeply, please,
Remember the good times we used to have,
Hold them closely to your soul,
Even if they might not come back.

I wanted you here by my side,
But I guess that's not how it's going to be,
Just remember, my dear friend, that I cared,
And that your memory will always remain in me.
