Denial. As time went on, I became angrier and eventually all I wanted was to forget, I was angry and bitter. And this is what lead me to write Bring it back.

Paige frowned. She knew this song would hurt her, knowing it was about her. But she would do this for him. She was still hurting herself. Maybe listening to this now would help in some twisted way.

Paige sighed. She was so confused, she didn't understand her own logic or thoughts.

Takin it slow
Isn't easy if as far as you go
Is only half as far as you and I both know
Yeah

Comin out from above
A little something
And it's only because
I don't ever wanna see you in love
But I know

That you've been
Coming off strong lately
And I can feel it that
You been thinking that maybe
You got a, another shot at me
Thinking possibly
Somehow, but not now

And it's been spinning around like a hurricane
And the sound of the thunder
That's beatin my head to the ground
But I
I know

That I can't go back,
To this,
To her,
To what we used to have

It's black and burns,
My God this is so sad
It'll only make things worse,
If we bring it back
Woah, yeah yeah, ohhhh

And I mean if you believe,
That there is something still between you and me
And baby honestly, yeah
You're not the one for me

And I can't go back,
To this,
To her,
To what we used to have.

It's black and burns,
My God this is so sad,
It'll only makes things worse,
(If we bring it back) [x4]

If we bring it,
Back.

Paige sobbed and sobbed and sobbed until she had no tears left.

"Me too, Shawn. Me too" she whispered reluctantly, but she was lying.

She wanted him more than anything.

There's more and yes it gets sadder.
