What is it that makes you so rich

What is it that makes you better than this

What is it that changes what's after

Is it me who you're after



Please don't ask I know you better than this

Please don't ask I'm not the one you're after

Please don't ask I don't want to make you cry

Please don't ask I don't want to say goodbye



Why do you try so hard to make me feel differently

Why do you want to spend so much time with me

Don't you know I will only let you down

I really don't want to make you frown



I'm not who you think I am

I try telling you but you think it's just a scam

I just don't want to hurt you

Even if it hurts me too



Who I am is not an illusion

But a former shell of a once familiar person

I try to show that I want to leave the past behind

But it just won't leave my pesky mind



All the terrible misfortunes I remember vividly

The good things in the past are out-weighed heavily

I just can't do enough things to even it out

Without me having to hurt the ones I care about



How easy is it to leave everything behind

To make a second chance and have peace of mind

It's a waste of time to try It'll never happen

Without losing everything you ever knew



What you want to ask will hurt you in the end

I just want to keep you as a friend

But once you ask you'll grow more distant

And I'm afraid you missed the hint



Why try for something that always causes pain

If you're only trying to gain

Something that everyone looks for

Besides for the person that no one looks at anymore



Yet you say you see me differently

You say you know more of me

You say that my past doesn't bother you

But how could I say yes if it hurts you now



You may not see that I'm not part of your destiny

But I don't know if it bothers you or me

But I have to say no

Or else you will never know



If you still come back and try

I don't know if I can still ask why



You try to get me to feel something that has died

Cause I don't want to hurt you I have to say goodbye

I'm not the person who that once was



I am just the shell wandering

Not able to feel the same emotions as you

Even though I want to

Why try for something that has died



Cause Love is a blessing in disguise

But it is a weapon deadlier than knives

I buried it to not hurt anyone

But it means to lose everyone
