Trying to say Goodbye

by Hopelessly Devoted to You   May 31, 2008


So things haven't really changed,
I told you how I feel,
You said you were shocked,
As you went with a new girl.

Now things don't feel the same,
I can no longer look at your face,
Its so different,
And so hard to erase.

So I lie in bed at night,
Looking at the moon,
Thinking and thinking,
More and more of you.

I kept telling myself,
More and more each time,
You weren't worth my tears,
Yet they fall helplessly down my eyes.

I can't help this feeling,
It feels way too strong,
To keep it bottled up,
And kept inside for so long.

You shattered my one hope,
My hope for you each day,
As I replaced it with a new one,
That my feelings for you decay.

You may ask if I still like you,
I will answer this with a lie,
Because deep down inside,
I'm still trying to say goodbye.....

    --been there : / sucks but a lot of people will relate to you on this opening

    Now things don't feel the same,

    And so hard to erase.
    --i like how you worded this one because its true when you love someone you can't just try and make it into a friendship it would never work

    So I lie in bed at night,
    Looking at the moon,
    Thinking and thinking,
    More and more of you.
    --i have done that and can say it is no fun at all

    More and more each time,
    You weren't worth my tears,
    Yet they fall helplessly down my eyes.
    ---this gives a sense of no control like you want to get over him but your heart is not going cooperating

    I can't help this feeling,
    It feels way too strong,
    To keep it bottled up,
    And kept inside for so long.
    ---this makes me wonder what is going to happen since you just kept it all inside

    You shattered my one hope,
    My hope for you each day,
    As I replaced it with a new one,
    That my feelings for you decay.
    ---this is good it shows that your are moving on

    You may ask if I still like you,
    I will answer this with a lie,
