It's funny how you give someone everything you have,
And for once you feel like you're on top of the world.
Then with one lie,
You're back where you were,
Building up walls,
And falling to your knees,
Asking God why.

She no longer needs someone to push her down,
And make her feel like shit.
She's doing it herself.

She refuses to look back,
Because she knows it'll just be harder,
To keep moving forward.

She knows holding on,
Will only get her hurt,
Because even though they said they'd never give up,
He finally let go,
While she's still holding on.

And she's holding onto the
"Always and forever"
Theory he led her to believe.

She knows she'll never be what he wants,
But with the little hope she does have,
She still wants to be that nothing he wants,
That nothing he'll never need.

Don't wake her,
Because you'll just be the nightmare,
SHe wants to always get away from.

She told herself she'd never fall in love again,
But everytime she sees him,
She falls in love all over again.

She doesn't want to forget him,
She just wants to stop living in the past.

She can pretend all she wants,
But still know,
Pretending will never take away the pain.
