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
