I Couldn't Possibly

by withlove   Feb 28, 2008


I sit here trying to remove this pain from my heart
And I dont want this to be just another heartbreak
Cause you mean more to me than I can express with words right now
But I cant bring myself to wish that we were together because I know you want to be with her and if she makes you happy then I cant complain
So I am stuck here just waiting
Waiting for something
But not for you
I couldnt possibly be waiting for you because I swore I would never do this again
I refuse to let you mean this much to me
So ill continue to lie to myself
Continue to try to replace you with these distractions
Knowing that this plate of nachos these Degrassi reruns this comfy couch and even the sound of Paramore coming from my laptop will not change the fact that you dont love me
I know this and yet
I just sit here checking
Checking for someone
But not for you
I couldnt possibly be checking to see if youre online every ten minutes even though I know youre at school because that would mean I was obsessing
And that couldnt possibly be true because Im not obsessed
Not with you
Here I go again
Im getting rather good at this lying thing arent I
So thats what Ill do
Ill continue to lie to myself and say I dont love you
Ill just find some other guy and fall in love with him
But not you
I couldnt possibly still love you
