Things were bright at first

Everything felt just right

But as time passed by

We both lost our light

We strayed away

We fell apart

Further every day

Colder every night

We didn't even argue

We never even yelled

It almost seems like

Neither ever cared

But I know I did

So I held on to you

I thought I'd pull through

But it killed me

It was like bittersweet poison

Cause I felt it all

I've lost the voice of reason

It withered in the fall

I felt the highs and the lows

But for some time I was whole

To feel that someone cares for you

To feel that someone wants you too

How did we drift from that

From all the great things that we had

I thought we only had each other

But oh how wrong I was to think

To think that I could have someone like you

Was it worth what I went through

All the self hatred all the doubt and pain

And in the end you left so what did I gain

Bittersweet poison to soften my fall

A whirlwind of emotions to dampen it all

Echoes of memories good and bad

A lonely life I wish I never had
