Keep the faith

by Behind Blue Eyes   Feb 14, 2009


If i ever tell you that i'm truly happy,
just know i'm lying through my teeth.
the smile i wear, and the laugh that i flaunt
are hiding much more underneath.

they say, "don't let true love pass you by."
well hun, i didn't take that advice.
i just stopped fighting. let him walk away.
and left myself to pay the price.

i thought that he'd come back to me,
like i did for him, time and time again.
but now i have to wake up, face reality,
and realize the it's the end.
i'm done wallowing in this pain.
comparing ever guy to him.
i need something new, something different.
i need to put myself out on a limb.

i'll let go of him eventually.
but for now i'll just have to cope.
one day i know i'll find someone else. i can't give up.
because anything is possible as long as you have hope.
