You Made It So Easy To Hate You {So Why Do I Still Love You?}

by Jenni Marie   Nov 7, 2008


Would have done anything to fix this mess
Anything and everything, anything at all
But what you said that day I'll never forgive
You just left me completely alone to fall

It's true that I messed up everything first
But never was anything as harsh as you said
All those plans we made came to nothing
I'm just left all on my own again instead

And it's so much harder cause I still love you
Telling friends and family that I've moved on
But sad fact is, you're always on my mind
My heart wont accept the fact that you're gone

Lying everyday, just smiling through the pain
Telling everybody I'm glad to see you go
Truth is I'm wishing things were different
Never knew it possible to feel this low

Reasons for what I did, even if you don't see
While everything you said was out of spite
How can something that once felt so perfect
Now leave me feeling so ashamed and contrite

Long weeks have passed since we last spoke
Wondering if you even still give a damn
If you think of me like I constantly think of you
If you ever wonder what I'm doing or where I am

Finally I've managed to stop tears from falling
Promising over you never again will I cry
But here's the truth-there's no tears left
Become completely void, so numb inside

Burnt everything that reminds me of you
Still your face is imprinted in my mind
Once seemed so good together, perfect fit
How did we let love fall so far behind?

They say that time heals all wounds
But this pain is more intense each day
Sleepless nights, empty days now common
Another statistic, another heartbroken cliche

Don't understand how I can still love you
When I hate you for everything you said
Haven't seen or talked to you in weeks
And you're still messing with my head

Still I can't listen to those certain songs
Everything still reminding me of you
Something on the tv, a passing comment
How did my world become so askew?

We used to be the very closest of friends
Now we've become the greatest of foe's
And still everyday I'm silently praying
"Someone give me the strength to let him go"
