If love created my happiness
Hate will create my pain
You may have broken my heart
But my love for you will remain
I know you cherish your freedom
But just don't walk away
I know we both need breathing room
But why does it seem so easy for you to stray?
You said you needed to slow things down
But they seem to have come to a permanent stop
Is that what you meant by letting things grow between us?
By never letting us talk?
If love equals suffering
Why do I want it so much?
If hate equals peace
Why do I resist its touch?
I feel like I'm close to the edge
About to fall from the precipice
I need to harden my heart
So I came to you for the recipe
I've come to you
I seek you out
How can I learn to be as insensitive as you?
How can I easily snuff my emotions out?
Explain to me just how things fell apart between us
For I force myself through everyday
I tried to be "the one," your everything
But you just walked away
You can't forget about me
No matter how hard you try
I'm inside you and you can't get me out
I'm the voice in your head you can't get rid of
I'm the fire in your soul
An itch you can't seem to scratch
I'm the insane thoughts running through your exhausted mind
I'm the constant reminder of painful yet cherished memories
I'm the wild rose among the weeds
I'm the diamond in the rough
I offered you the ultimate committment
But it didn't seem to be enough
Our destinies brought us together
Only your stubborness keeps us apart
Can't you see that fate brought me to you?
I belong in your soul, mind, and heart
