Before everyone else

I wanted to be chosen as a prize
held among everyone else but you only gave me strife
the information given to me became a lie
i heard you call for me
the reason i hoped for was a crushed
the favor i did for you was done in a rush
time i raced for the person who betrayed me
true love is what kept me there with you on that day
there was given to me a sort of aid
beyond my own understanding why i couldn't cry
i tried to let you go the next day at night
the tears seemed to be dry
its for my sake i have to let go in this fight
my only option is to lose
this is something in life i must do
goodbyes won't satisfy this lost cause
inside apart of me has died
the only thing left to do is say bye bye.
